- Here we restore the chrome finish on a set of old golf club irons. A set of Titleist 690mb golf irons.
You can follow them all the way through the refinishing. You see the whole process including stripping the old finish, polishing and chroming. When the chrome needs re-finishing it is not a DIY job you can do yourself.
When we have finished with them they are finished to a higher shine than when they were new. It is a full set of irons including the wedge.

We have a new video where we restore some Mizuno club heads. ruclips.net/video/kyvtkj2kCnM/видео.html
I would like my MacGregor MT forged irons re-chromed. How do I contact you and what do you charge for set of 2, 3, 44, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, PW (9 clubs) please?
Approximately how much per head did that cost?
would like my MacGregor MT forged irons re-chromed. How do I contact you and what do you charge for set of 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, PW (7 clubs) please? ,and What is the destination address?
I clicked on this in hopes that I’d be able to accomplish this myself.
I was initially disappointed to see the effort involved, but to see the end result is remarkable. This is art. Absolutely beautiful work.
DO NOT TRY THIS IN YOUR BASEMENT! My home is ruined
Any Titleist fan that watches this will be drooling 🤤
They did turn out nice.
I was.
Absolutely mate 👍🏼
Haha just got some new Titleist hence why I am watching it!
That is not craftsmanship,it is pure wizardry.
For something to look better refinished than when it was new is just incredible.
I don't know whether your dad did this work also but if he did he passed an extremely rare and outright amazing talent on to you.
Thanks for posting as i don't think any such video exists on RUclips! 👏👏👏
Thanks. Yes it is a family business. My dad started polishing in 1948.
daaamn!!!. I've never seen a brand new clubs shinier than those. , absolute master craftsmanship!
They are a finer finish than new
Had no idea how much work and craftsmanship is needed to refinish clubs, end result was amazing
Wonderful restoration better than new.
Yes the finish is better than new. I am always surprised at the original quality of the finish considering how much they cost.
You're right there isn't anything like this on RUclips. That was fascinating, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
By far the finest and most comprehensive restoration of irons ive seen. The sandblasted faces blew my mind i always thought it was 2 diffrent metals...now i look closely and you sir are correct.
They are gorgeous.
absolutely beautiful work. I'd love to have this done to my backup set of titelist 690 cbs.
We can do that for you. Email me sales@marquerestore.co.uk
That’s just incredible
Thanks for the comment.
I've got 690's and if these guys are still in business I'm going to send them my clubs!
We are still in business!
Brilliant. I had my mizuno blades rechromed 4 years ago, also £35 per head. Came back so shiny that I could barely believe it was the same clubs i sent away
Good stuff
The Titleist 690MBs are one of the sexiest blades i've ever seen (besides the Taylormade RAC smokes).
Lmfao
They do look good when restored
I’d be scared to hit them again after that! Amazing work 👏👏👏
FordF if I’d done all of this, I’d never hit them!
Now that is craftsmanship!! Those clubs are beautiful.
Happy you like them
Great video
Thanks!
I never realized how much work it takes to plate objects in general.
Most folks are surprised by the amount of work needed
awesome job. wish I could have my set of Mizuno MP-14's refurbished
You can. Our contact details are in the description and at the end of the video
Top notch job, good to see this kind of workshop is still going strong!
Many thanks
10:30 Stop right there! Golden clubheads! 🤩 That will be a rage on the golfcourses!
We also do them in actual gold
Wowww!!! They are museum pieces now. Amazing work!
Thank you very much! Much better to use them though.
I’m very impressed. A lot of work, but them irons look so good. Better than new. Top marks from me 😎👍
Thanks 👍
Great video, thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Wow! an amazing job start to finish and so nice of Martin Roberts from Homes Under the Hammer to do the voice over.
An incredible piece of work there!
Really interesting video.
Glad you enjoyed it
That’s really impressive.
Very good set of blades...
What a beautiful job. Would love to get my mizuno set like these
Just let us know if you want it doing.
Absolutely fascinating watching this. Better than showroom. Now if I could only hit forged blades. But they would look great in my golf bag.
Wow stunning.
This is really interesting, these guys are so skilled and talented
Happy you liked it
this is the most satisfying video I have ever watched in my life
Those look super cool with the flat finish when you took them out of the rust-remover. Bronzed Titleist irons would be an interesting finish I think!
I will have to take a look at that.
Wow. That was great. Forget about new clubs.
I’m just gonna get mine refinished.
As long as it makes financial sense.
Wow, that’s amazing
Amazing
Thanks
Wow 👏 fantastic guys what a great job you did of these. Love watching proper craftsmen bringing such a beautiful looking bladed iron back to life 👍
Interesting video. Great job explaining all the processes. The refinished irons look better than new store bought irons. Lovely job!
The finish is better than new
That was very satisfying to watch! Great work!!
Thank you very much!
Absolutely stunning work, reminds me of my Hogan apex blades!
Thank you! Cheers!
Watched this video, just restored my Hogan apex blades.
Wonderful work... Very interesting!
Many thanks!
Some quality workmanship 👍
Wow, impressive. Top notch work! 💯
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video, very informative, very well presented, so good, I watched it again 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant work my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
What results!!! I think my John Donson just moved a bit...
Wow that was awesome
Wow!what an amazing procedure with so many elements.very interesting.
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice finish.
Thank you! Cheers!
A properly interesting video. Well done. You guys are craftsmen. 👍🏻
Happy you enjoyed it. We will soon have another golf head video (being edited). Mizuno heads restored using the 4 layer 'Layers of Feel' process like originnal.
The grooves themselves are in fact not as important as the sand blasting of the face which the golf ball will come into contact with. For more information see Tom Wishon's books and articles on the subject. He is the foremost expert on clubhead design in the world. So, good job, very interesting to watch.
Thanks for the comments.
really, so if I want to spice up some old wedges I can just hit them with the blaster?
@@tedmiller2334 Hi. The grooves are important in order to create "bite" as the ball is compressed into the club face, but you need to have sufficient technical skill in order to do so. Some players can get spin from a wedge, many just can't. It's an angle of attack and hand pronation/supination thing. However, those areas of the club face directly in contact with the ball are also very important. This is why you see "mini-grooves" in the hitting areas on many modern designs, or why many players let their wedge heads rust. A quick sand blast can have very pleasant and surprising results. If you can redraw grooves a bit too that is an added bonus. (Be careful though to not make your wedges illegal) As I say, see Tom Wishon's teachings on the issue. All things clubmaking, he's your man.
Good lord this is amazing. Nice work!
wow master craftsmen
Fantastic work
Many thanks
they look amazing
Your a Master my friend!! Exquisite Craftsmanship and skill!! Well done !! Peace brother
I'm not hitting my clubs ever again aftet that 😂 to the man cave they go !
will these perform the same? its got a layer of metal removed likely 500 microns or more. perhaps just keep these on display and buy a new set to play.
@@humorss Club builder should be able to match the weights from pre-chrome. Ideally they should have been weighed at disassembly prior to shipping to the plating company. Some tungsten or plugs in the hosel should do the trick. Lead tape on the back for an ultra-bad-ass look. Assuming loft and lie are returned to previous specs, they should perform nearly identically.
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
These are absolutely beautiful. What amazing work.
Thank you so much!
Awesome video. I do have 4 wedges that could do with that treatment... might have to give you guys a shout 👌🏽
Great job
Thanks
Simply amazing. Fantastic work
Thank you so much 😀
Brilliant! Cheers from America!
Man, that was so satisfying! Great work.
Thanks a ton!
Great work
Thanks
Must be a rewarding job to see how things turn out
Gorgeous. Would love to find a restoration shop like this in the USA
Thank you very much!
Fantastic!
Thank you! Cheers!

wow wow wow,its beautifull
Thanks for watching. We also have a Mizubo club restoration video as well ruclips.net/video/kyvtkj2kCnM/видео.html
absolutely amazing. obviously requiring skills that are probably very hard earned. liked and subscribed.
You are correct. Takes a long time to learn these skills.
Beautiful
Thank you
Very impressive photography and editing. Well done.
Thanks. I have tried to improve the production values. I hope you can see the improvement from the early to late videos.
Nice work!
Thanks!
That takes time and talent. Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you very much!
You're hired
Awesome!! Incredible amount of detail and effort.
Glad you like it!
So good very interesting to see the process
Epic!🤙🏽 Makes me want a set! Great job keeping us on the end of our seats waiting to see the finished product! I’m going to polish up my Ping Eye 2s now!
Completely different process, thankfully, since they're investment cast stainless steel heads that don't require any of those hazardous chemicals. I'd get a tumbler, the "mops" and compounds for those.
you did a fantastic job
I have that same set of irons and now I want to find somewhere to have this done.
Hi Jared
We can do them for you. Our contact details are in the description.
Thank you for making this
I need mine done ASAP
We can do this for you, just get in contact (details in description)
How much does this proccess cost? Would love to know if its cost effective against a new set or would it only make sense for nostalgia??
These were £35 each ex VAT
I have a set of these 690MB's, knowing that it's about $40 USD Each, $320 total, has me completely rethinking ever buying new again. To me, the 690's are the prettiest clubs ever.
Loved watching this and especially seeing the finished product. Thanks for making the video and sharing.
Our pleasure!
That was awesome.....
Happy you like it.
Incredible work. WOW!
Absolutely incredible. Some serious knowledge at play here
Thanks for the compliment.
Great fascinating video, thanks for posting it. 👍
Our pleasure!
Absolute craftsmanship! New subscriber....your team has an excellent process and meticulous attn to detail and safety. I am an weekend warrior golf club restorer...so no acids or nickel or chrome dipping lol. I also use varying sanding grits, grinding wheels and wire wheels. I spend a lot of time cleaning between steps. I use Nevr Dull wadding cleaner polish first, a Quick Car Detailer w cleaners and light wax, then Turtle Wax Ice spray wax, followed by Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic spray wax...allow 24hrs for ceramic coat to bond and cure, followed by a 2nd coat. I find this process, with an occasional water clean w soft brush and light wax coat...has kept my family and friends clubs rust, corrosion free along w ease of debris rinse off or wipe off. I use several diff microfiber cloths of diff colors and softness during wax and buff out steps.
My son is concerned any grinding or wire wheeling nicks, gouges, or deep scratches removes too much material, affecting weight, feel, and performance of the clubs. My first month practicing ....I did botch a putter...even though it LOOKED GREAT, the putter head is very....susceptible to too much metal removal...I learned to use multiple sanding and grinder grits....to avoid heavier grit aggressive material removal.
I must have watched this video several times.....if I ever have clubs I cannot restore myself...your technique is stellar. Guessing u r in UK, kinda wish u were in the States...I would use you, and play more golf in my retirement!
Thanks for the great comments. We do have customers who send work over from the USA. The shipping is not as expensive as you might think. I have lots of stuff shipped over as I have several classic Chevrolets and Fords that I am restoring.
What's your business address in the UK?
Absolutely amazing
If you plan to play refinished clubs in competition, it might be a good idea to get the grooves checked. If the dimensions have been altered by the refinish, some spotty Herbert might throw a rule book at you.
Amazing work!
Glad you think so!
Very nice. I was wondering why these clubs I bought that looked pretty much new had a little bit of Browning on 7 iron but from I can tell now it is just the nickel. I wonder if there is a way to prevent from going thru the next layer. Or a quick chrome I can touch it up with. I feel newer clubs have such thin layers these days so people feel the grooves are bad when it must be plating has wore off
Unfortunately there is no way to 'touch up'. The only way is to strip and start again from scratch.
Holy smokes 😲
Thanks
Cool video!
Thanks!
