- Today I show you how to effectively paint fill your golf clubs. It's a fun little project to do in the off season if you miss getting your hands on the club. It can also be a great way to give older clubs new life!
Dude, I’ve been wanting to repaint my clubs for years and didn’t realize how simple it could be. Thank you 😃
I like using Testors enamel model paint better. I paint it on with a small model paintbrush (a-tips leave fuzz in the paint). I let it dry 18-24 hours then take an old t-shirt rag, pulled TIGHT over my index finger...dampened with Testors Thinner...and wipe the high spots clean. Maybe let the enamel dry for 1-2 more days. I find the enamel paint more durable than the acrylic paint. After drying for about 2-3 days, the enamel paint is very hard and stays in the numbers quite well.
Nice, simple and easy! Thanks for the tips! But man, it’s Excess with an “E” not Access with an “A” lol
Man, never thought this thing would get so many views! Thanks for the likes and comments everybody!
I’m going to repaint a set of old Ping Zing irons I got in a dumpster haha best set of clubs I’ve ever had. I just got them regripped
Thanks JC, I'll hit up the Wal-Mart tomorrow.
I'll use your technique on two of my recent refurb projects: Titleist 712 MB & Honma CL-707 iron sets.
I've cleaned them up real good like, removed any and all existing paint, their ready for the paint shop.
thanks JC,
Guy
Just used the technique and it worked great. I also touched up the lettering on some old Mizuno Grad irons. The “Grad” lettering took a little longer to dry, since the lettering was wider and needed more painted. But your technique is great and I’m happy with the finished product.
Your video helped me a bunch cheers mate! Was using thinners to remove the excess paint on my leatherman surge lettering but ended up removing all the paint I didn’t have any q tips but had some alcohol wipes and they worked just fine!
My Titleist club numbers have mostly rubbed off and was not sure how to put the paint back on until I saw your video, thanks, going out to Walmart to buy some paint.....
Awesome! Thanks for this comment, just made my day.. I'd also scroll through the comments, lots of people have shared additional ideas that help a lot!
Yeah... still looking at my local craft store for access paint. I can't find any. Also, going to follow this procedure with my clubs this offseason.
😂😂 yeah yeah "Excess" not "Access" I promise that is what I was trying to say!
You are a Master Club Painter. w0w.
Next time you go to clean the. They will be empty again I learned that by using acrylic paint like he is in the video. You need to use enamel paint
Great job!,thank you for your great tip!
Great tip thanks!!
Good stuff
excess
Damn it.
I wish I had access to more videos like this.
THANK YOU
nail polish lasts so much longer. remove with acetone ( which is nail polish remover, but 10000 times cheaper.)
Might have to try Nail Polish on my new RTX-4's!
Thanks for the tip
Fine acrylic paint pen is much cleaner.
Use a sponge to apply And remove paint in one pass. Save way more time.
That's a really good idea, I'll have to try that!
And your wifes stash of acryllic nail polish in every colour of the rainbow
Excess, with an E.
Access is what you want at the Masters
You can also let it dry completely and then use a razor blade and it’ll come off easy
Try using a cotton T-shirt, pulled very tight around your finger. This will act like sand paper, only taking off paint in high spots without the risk of wiping the paint below the surface. 😀
YES! Great idea.. Will for sure save you from having redo the dang thing a couple times.
I've also seen folks use a very fine steel wool.
Great tip, but I rummage through my wife's makeup and find a nail polish color that works as well.
Can you use car touch up paint?
What kind of paint? And.. would this work on weights in putters?
Question, if you don’t care about small scratches, could you wait for it to dry and use a high grit sand paper (like 400 or higher)?
I guess technically yes.. BUT 10/10 do not recommend lol..
Does it have any influence on the swing weight? Maybe over reacting but jut curious.
Hey Jared, any tips or tutorials for when the lettering is raised and not recessed?
Grant Brasher Hmm, I’ve never ran into that before, your best chance is probably with a really fine paintbrush and just painting the letters like normal. Unfortunately without the indent the “fill” method obviously won’t work and I’m not sure just painting the letters will get the look you want unless you are very careful. If you do decide to go that route I would definitely put some clear nail polish sealer on it so it’s less likely to chip away.
Sorry I’m not more help, hope it works out if you find a good way a video response or explanation would be awesome!
@@jaredcapouch3148 i realise this is years too late but if anyone comes across this issue in the future try some Blu Tack or Silly Putty and mush it over the indented lettering/numbering and just paint away on the exposed bits and the Blu tack/Silly Putty should protect whatever remains covered.
Hi.....I think I followed all directions and it worked great. But I have a question.....I found that there are some like my 8 iron that the q tip is too large and my SW. shows 56 but it is small....so I can put the paint on but when I try and remove it in the necessary places it ends up taking out paint where it shouldn’t. Have you tried any other tools like a firm paint brush etc
I think firm paint brush is great idea. Or one of the foam kind you can get in the same section as paint brushes in any home improvement store. Let me know how it works! Glad to hear it worked great otherwise.
What about the paint on the lines of the club face????
I use a fine tip sharpie 👍
Brilliant.
just a regular sharpie? or like some sort of paint pen sharpie?
If you do this on a Nike vapor pro swoosh. Will then nail polish remover take off the black paint surrounding the green swoosh? I just wanna change the color of the swoosh
Did you ever figure out the answer? I am curious
Any kind of acrylic paint works?
I can't get the paint out of my clubs. The paint that came with the clubs I mean. How do I get it out of the numbers on order to put different paint in the numbers. Acetone and nail polish remover both did absolutely nothing to the paint that is already in the iron.
What kind of clubs do you have? And have you tried using something to scape away the paint? With my clubs just acetone wouldn't work but once I started to scape it away with the knife it started to come out pretty easy. Hope this helps!
Use spray on paint stripper from Home Depot. Let it sit for 20 minutes and spray again. With a cheap plastic dish scrubbing brush, scrub the head and all the paint will break up. Then rinse it all off with mineral spirits using the brush to clean it all out of the crevices. No need for alcohol or clear coat. Just paint fill and play. VERY easy..........
I used Klean Strip paint remover (about 8 bucks for a large container at Walmart). Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, wipe, brush or scrape it out. Careful, this stuff is toxic.
magic eraser to remove the extra paint
How about the back of the irons inside the cavity area ? They are Mizuno XV Oversize T-Zoid clubs and all the backs have been damaged (silver paint has been scratched off) by the club heads banging against each other in the bag. I've got covers now but could do with a respray to look good. Is there a certain paint type. They are old but still look good so worth it.
good video
Hi, what kind of paint do you use?
Do you HAVE to take the old paint off?
I don't think so. I've done it directly over paint and it seems to work just fine.
I don't know what material the golf clubs are made but could you tell me if this paint would work on aluminum.
I don't see why not, I know from other painting experience that acrylic paints are often used to paint aluminum siding on houses. If you don't want to take the chance of it not sticking though you can always use an oil-based paint which takes a bit longer to dry but lasts longer. Let me know how to works out!
Jared Capouch thanks a lot I'll give it a try.
I would like to try this on the bottom grove of the face. Would that work?
Yes it should work the same I believe. Never tried it myself though.
going to try to remove the paint off the face of my new ER6 evnroll putter why they painted the grooves i dont understand that its stainless steel an the grooves it what gives it the best modern tech an they very shallow start with but i dont want to mess the whole putter up an have to custom paint the whole putter i can i have everything..its going to be hard to just get the one square of paint off face looks tricky
Any need to put a clear coat over the paint? Do you get any chipping or wearing of the paint in the number?
If you keep your clubs fairly clean the paint will last awhile without chipping away. I've noticed if you use a wire brush around the painted area it can take the paint out. A clear coat would probably be a good idea either way.
Rather than Q-tip and alchohol use a small polishing block (your wife or girlfriend will have one for her nails) :)
why not use a RAZOR BLADE?
How do you fill in scratch marks or gouges on the bounce of wedges etc ?
Unfortunately those gouges are probably there to stay, at least to the extent of my knowledge. However I've always found those kind of marks (especially on wedges) add to the character of your clubs and make them unique to you. My old set of Nike wedges have all kinds of scuff marks from hitting off bad lies including cart paths and rocks around ponds, the mark it made just gave it a story but doesn't change the performance. I suppose depending on the color of the wedge maybe you could find a high gloss silver paint or something? Maybe even use solder? I wouldn't recommend that though, I don't think it'd look any better than the gouges.
@@jaredcapouch3148 Many thanks I never thought of them like that - more like the scars of war !!😎
@@aidanmurray2520 you can actually buff those marks out and there is some videos on RUclips if your still looking for it.
Does this work over black numbers
Yes you bet! Mine started as black numbers.. It's best practice to remove the black paint before you fill them with the color you want but I didn't for mine and they turned out just fine.
Don't use acrylic paint it won't last a week using ename paint. Nail polish is an easy way to get started there are a million colors
Those clubs have some mileage on them.
EXCESS paint.......... not ACCESS paint.
Excess....
Excess, not Access was I the only one to catch that? LoL
Nope, you're about the 100th 😅 words are hard sometimes..
