cerakote, a ceramic coating used on firearms typically.

better corrosion resistance too

5 days air cure, type C

it is more matte than sheen. i have used a clear coat that is glossy over it before but i think it looks better and holds up better with just the first layer of cerakote. I feel the clear coat chips easier and takes the colored cerakote underneath it with it. of course elite or H series is better for clubs but i dont have an oven to bake in, so C series was my choice. for putters, it seems to hold up well.

@MasterfulClubRevival I play Golf Clash and it's nothing but Trump groups. There are nearly zero Biden or Kamala groups.

@@travr6 the government doesnt give clubs out free

@@MasterfulClubRevivalVery true. DOGE all the way.

Yea, just requires extended time under a torch. ive been wanting to do another carbon steel putter and torch it, followed by a purple oil quench. give it the purple/blue color

i did not measure the amount of cerakote. i used type C, which does not require a catalyst to cure. so there was no need to perform a measurement.

typically i use Testors Enamel paint, it seems to work the best. followed by a quick acetone wipe to get excess off

Bosch 6 gallon pancake compressor, LeMatic amazon media blaster. not ideal for big jobs but has been fine for clubs at the hobby level !

@@thomaskerns7345 I know, but they take up space and I don’t have room for it in my single car garage. Or else I would. And it’s a hobby so I don’t mind losing money on each project. But yes the media is a little expensive lol

@@BroskY250 trust me, I’ve looked into them, even the “mini mills” are expensive though! Plus I don’t have much garage room but someday! Thanks!

that's a denim wheel (like the jeans). order i use is deburring wheel (scotchbrite), then sisal, then denim, then cotton.

@@kevinhowe5502 I could not save the face milling. Over the years the milling was warn down too much and some spots were even bare. If the mill job was intact I wouldn’t have ground it down at all. But because it was patchy I completely refaced it to be flat. Without a machine milling it, it’s impossible to ensure a perfectly flat face. However a micrometer tool can be used to ensure it’s as even/flat as possible. A highly skilled or tour pro level golfer may feel a face that’s not perfect but I don’t think it would affect the average golfer. A way that requires no tools but a level to ensure a flat grind is as simple as a few drops of water. If the water runs off the face when the head is perfectly level then the face isn’t level. If the water stays put then the face is flat

@@MasterfulClubRevival Thanks for the reply! I work in a machine shop, so I do have access to a milling machine, but am concerned with taking off more weight than needed. I was considering just taking the face to a belt sander and trying to apply even pressure.

@@kevinhowe5502 I would look up some custom milling videos, balance could be effected but again at most people skill level I doubt it would result in too many extra missed putts. PS- I would love to have a cool milled face even if it messed up the “roll”. Haha

@@McgeeOffThe13 thank you! I know! I wanted to do the whole paint fill dark blue but the clients (my work is free just pay shipping) son wanted white and blue to match his HS golf team

@@JohnDoe-di1fk got em!

@@brianpetermeyer7462 sand blaster, air compressor, HVLP paint gun kit, polishing machine (with arbor extenders), basic polishing wheels known as deburring, sisal, denim, and cotton. Brad Mehan on KZbin has way better tutorials than anything I could offer!

@@brianpetermeyer7462 it was a cheap one on Amazon, it’s gravity fed vs suction fed. Great for small projects. The brand is”Lamatic”. I’ve used it a bunch and works fine at 90 PSI for small bursts. Would not be good for big objects but clubs and wrenches it’s great.

@@seanyp8930 charge on! I’m in Port Saint Lucie. Probably 2 hours south of Orlando on east coast. Shipping costs aren’t horrible so depends on what your time is worth to you and how much gas money you’ll spend.

@@seanyp8930 plus I do it at cost for hobby. So you save big that way. Only issue with that is that I’m not a professional and my work isn’t perfect.

Could be the age or type of paint. I typically use testers enamel paint. I would use acetone and give a wipe without a lot of pressure, skimming the surface paint off but leaving the cavity. What surface are you painting. Golf clubs or other items?

@ golf clubs. I use enamel as well. Paint pens or automotive applicators. I’ll try a light acetone mix see if that improves it. Thx!

@@Bruisermac13 I sometimes run into the problem of the paint being too wet! I let it sit and dry for 2-3 minutes before a quick wipe

Thanks!

@@Bruisermac13any other questions let me know!

most places would charge you $150-200 for refurb, maybe more. i do my work for free as its a hobby and i enjoy it. as long as you pay for shipping to /from my place.

charge on baby! (except this year Gus has got to go)

Well done!

@ appreciate it!!!

probably about $125-150 i would think, better if in mint condition and fresh face milling

​@@MasterfulClubRevivalI have this exact club and it needs a good makeover

@@danieltaylor1950that’s awesome!

@ I’ll refurb for free if you pay shipping to/from me. And the cost of a new grip. Rest of the material/time is free as it’s a hobby I enjoy. Let me know

@@bowler0328 aluminum oxide 120 grit

appreciate the sub! yea its air cure. for putters its pretty durable. ive even tested it on irons and sand wedge and not horrible. i may experiment with H or Elite series which require baking soon and test those on irons.

@@MasterfulClubRevival Ive used the H series for mostly all the putter heads I've refinished. Good to know the air cured cerakote is just as durable. Much easier than having to cure in an oven!

@@FlagstickPutters i did a cerakote putter for my brother with C series. the face and sole have taken no damage after 1 year of use, however he doesnt replace the putter cover between holes and the top edge of his putter has some cerakote chips due to smashing into other clubs while he returns it into his bag. not sure if H series would prevent that either. simply replacing the cover before putting in the bag would fix that... lol

@@MariaGabrielli-yy2oo my biggest fan!

my first few wipes i use paper towel and mineral spirits, and usually i finish it off with acetone quick wipe as acetone is more aggressive. any other questions let me know, thanks!

Thank you!

I bought it for $5 at a thrift shop and after refurb sold it for $100! Good luck on yours if you flip it. If it’s a Scotty Cameron “bullseye” it would be worth a lot more, if you pay for shipping I would restore it for free

@@sonycarp8271 thank you good sir!

Honesty is tough

@@tim5749 what’s your best 2 man scramble score?

@@MasterfulClubRevival 72 but like I’m a 20 handicap bro I get roasted for my scores all the time 😂golf’s a journey i don’t compare myself to others we all are different in the 2,000 variables that decide what scores we get each time we play. Honesty is tough 🔥

@@MasterfulClubRevival was just being light hearted bro if I played a 2 man scramble in a golf outing and shot a 91 I’d get roasted by my friends. If you can’t laugh at yourself, accept whatever results you get, what’s the point? I’m sure you guys can shoot under together 🔥

@@Rocket__RL what do you and friend usually shoot for 2 man?

@@MasterfulClubRevival I don’t scramble much but last time I scrambled a 2 man on nine holes we shot -6

Thanks a lot!

Yea I know, and for some reason I think the clear coat actually made the chipping and wear worse. I’ve done an iron with just type C and it held up better than this one. Granted I was also hitting out of sand and gravel with this one. I’ll try to pick up some smaller toaster oven that I can bake clubs in and try my hand at H or elite series. But for things like shafts I feel like I’ll have to stick to C series as I don’t think I’ll be able to fit a shaft in any oven

@@ryanuhazie i think doing shafts with C series is totally fine because they don’t take the beating the actual club takes. Obviously is you can bake something it’s always gonna be better but for something like a shaft it would probably hold up really well with just the C series

I need to get a small toaster oven so I can bake some putter heads and start using H or elite series. You have any experience with those?

I wanted extra durability to the head, figured 2 layers of Cerakote may be better than 1. However i used a single layer without clear coat on a different iron and it seems to hold up better without chipping. If I do another club I won’t clear coat it

usually $10 a club

The smudge was from me bumping the cerakote with my hand during spraying and because it was just for a club test i did not attempt to make it perfect

Thanks 👍

I picked them up for $45 locally, just for fun did the work and ended up giving them away to a friend who doesnt own clubs. may not have the tech that modern clubs have but for free he cant beat it!

Thanks! Let me know when your clubs need some TLC

black automotive grade spray paint! rustoleum progfessional and then hit with a clear coat. nect time i will use 2 coats of clear coat for extra protection.

@@MasterfulClubRevivalthanks for the tip! I might try that with my set of DCIs (962)

How good was the Cerakoting?

Clear coat could have been better. I also used air cure Type C which is less durable than the baked H series
