That looks nice

[@igolf906]

Thanks

[@drew2180]

clubs look great! really like the finishes you put on them.

[@igolf906]

Thanks!

[@darrenmcmurray5392]

Absolutely love your videos mate, these irons are class!

[@igolf906]

Thank you!

[@beveridge1313]

very satisfying Very nice!

[@TheFoz1983]

I’d play them no problem. In fact I am tempted to get my mizuno mp18s done like that.

[@igolf906]

That Satin finish does look pretty slick.

[@kall3467]

Looks killer as always. Dude, if my home course didn't suck I would love to turn you loose with the irons I just got the other day. What would kill me is the heads would turn out so nice....and the crappy conditions at my course would destroy them...😢

[@igolf906]

Thanks! Well if it makes you feel any better, I don't do irons for customers 🤣They're a different animal from putters and the two sets I did I cherry picked because they were solid stainless steel. 99% of irons are carbon steel plated with copper and nickel. And I'm not getting into chemical stripping or electrolysis anytime soon. 🤷‍♂️

[@kall3467]

@@igolf906 Well, that makes me feel a touch better... 😆 I thought you did get into that electro dohickie stuff?

[@igolf906]

@kall3467 I tried it on one putter, and it took me weeks, and half dozen failed attempts at almost ruining a classic Scotty. Did everything by the book and just couldn't seem to figure it out 🤷‍♂️

[@kall3467]

@igolf906 Well I can definitely understand that. How are you stripping finishes these days then, chemicals?

[@igolf906]

@kall3467 rarely need to after the deburring wheel but blasting any finish off works well.. Unless it's plated.

[@redhed9776]

you nailed it...

[@igolf906]

Thank you!

[@jonq8714]

Now that looks tasty.

[@stuboy13]

I have these irons in the chrome carbon - wish mine looked as good as yours do! They look amazing. Class job mate. Can I ask for some advice? I removed a head with a blowtorch (as a complete amateur) and the black resin expanded from the heel bore-hole. Any idea what the best thing to use to fill it up would be?

[@igolf906]

I'm sure a two part epoxy with some black dye would work fine. Or even if you you have the Golfworx style club epoxy that's black would be OK. I don't believe these are true bore through so, essentially they're just cosmetic, and indicate which model they are.

[@stuboy13]

@@igolf906 cheers mate I'll check that out. I read it's a modified bore-thru so they could move more mass behind the hitting area. Apparently. It was only the 3 iron I took out to replace with something hollow with more bounce and less sharp leading edge. (P760 4 iron was the same weight and loft so was ideal)

[@k1mm3ry]

Love what you've done with these clubs. I have the exact same set, except mine has the chrome finish. Would the restoration process be different from yours?

[@igolf906]

Thank you! Yes the restoration would be much more extensive. Would require a professional stripping of chrome and nickel before the restoration process. Then would need to be replated. That's why I did the stainless set.

[@k1mm3ry]

@@igolf906 Thanks for the quick reply. Now I wish I had the stainless set 🥲

[@jonq8714]

So was the bead blasted finish 220 grit and the aluminum oxide face 80 grit?

[@igolf906]

The AO is 100 grit.

[@jonq8714]

@@igolf906 thanks man.

[@jackmccoy7583]

Question what does the CM mean on the back of the clubs ?

[@igolf906]

I believe it stands for Cavity/Muscle. As it's a combo set.

[@gripandgolf2]

Love your videos!!!! what kind of beads do you use to get that satin finish?

[@igolf906]

240 grit glass

[@landonsnyder3732]

What kind of maintenance would you need to do to keep this finish?

[@igolf906]

It's stainless steel so essentially nothing. Maybe just a quick wipe with soap and water from time to time.
