THANK YOU!! This worked brilliantly! My wife, who isn’t a golfer, tried out my TSi3 at the weekend and put a massive sky mark on the toe! I tried this last night and it really worked! Thank you for sharing such a cool trick!
Oh my…TSi3 drivers and wives don’t mix. If we are at Top Golf, and my wife wants to try my driver I put 2 layers of blue painters tape on the crown - just in case. She got mad the first time until she roofed a shot and saw why I did that. If your TSi is banged up from that, send the head to Continental Golf. Their refinish work is top notch. I sent a Taylor Made driver to them and it looked better than new when I got it back. 😀👍🏻
I had a pretty bad pop up mark on my new Callaway Maverick that I recently purchased over the summer. It was my first real golf club purchase so it really hurt to see that on there. I used this simple method and the mark came out easily after about 3 minutes of rubbing the toothpaste on there. Thanks for the help!
Did the job! 3 years of playing my TS3 and put my first dummy ding on it this past weekend. Devastated. Used your method and it's like it never happened! Thanks! :)
Works really well, thanks! I have a new Titleist driver that I managed to sky off the toe end of the crown after only 1 week. This took about 90% of the mark off to the point that it isn't really noticeable.
@@FreshlySnipes Should help on any glossy finish head. Only times it won't work is with a matte finish like Ping or PXG. Still have not found a good solution for those.
Last weekend first tee put one on my TSI3(just second round using it) toothpaste removed it perfectly. Really glad I don’t have that mark staring me in the face any more!
Toothpaste has abrasives. It will take out light surface scratches but it will dull polished surfaces. Use Nu-Finish car polish or equivalent to restore luster to dull surface.
Thanks for this totally worked on my TM M2 Driver after letting a relative have a go at the driving range. I was particularly gutted because it has a deep sentimental value to me (got it from my favourite uncle who just recently passed). Thought it was cracked and would eventually break in time. Your tip helped a lot! Thanks
Great vid played today hit a pop up was mad about it brand new driver came home went on RUclips to see if anyone made a video about take scuff marks out of drivers 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for the tip came out great
thank you sir.. Now i dont have to strangle my buddy lol ...just fixed my new TSR3 .. i let someone hit it and that's exactly what they did skied it.. it wasn't real bad but i could always see it and now looks good as new since i just got fitted for it like a month ago lol
I have pop up marks. I can like with them on my M4 Taylormade Driver. But, today I noticed what looked like light rust on my Ping G425 fairway 5 wood. I’m going to try the tooth paste on it in the morning.
I handed a coworker my Qi10 and he put a massive fricking sky mark right on the top of my driver head. The toothpaste trick works very well, you can only see the mark in perfect lighting now.
Toothpaste can be a bit gritty and leave swirls on a gloss black head - especially visible in the outdoor sun. I have found that Meguiars Scratch X 2.0 is a nice alternative. I’ve also used a beige/white foam pad on my drill (medium speed to avoid burning the paint) to remove swirls on dark colors with the Scratch X 2.0. Here’s a few things that I do to help minimize crown damage from a pop up (not completely eliminate, just minimize) - I wax the crown of my driver (gloss finish works best, but a little ultimate paste can also be applied sparingly to a matte finish with a finger. It doesn’t whiten like other waxes and the finish is still 95% matte) by applying Meguiars Ultimate Paste wax with my finger to the crown. It helps to make the surface slick and less likely for the ball to grip the surface. I wax my driver head after every round. - I make sure to clean my golf ball EVERY TIME before teeing it up. Dirty balls leave marks. If I am at the range, I wipe the ball with my damp towel before I tee it up. - I double check my tee height and play it forward to avoid hitting under the ball to begin with. - mist importantly NEVER, NEVER 👎🏻 let a buddy hit your driver unless they are a low hdcp player. A buddy of mine saw I had a new custom Rogue Max LS driver and asked me if he could hit it. It also has a matte finish on the head. I declined and he asked our other buddy if he could try his new Stealth 2 driver. That buddy let him and…he roofed it. Also with a dirty ball. Our mutual friend was pretty upset and the buddy who roofed the shot just said, “oops…sorry”. - if you MUST let a friend hit your driver, keep thicker painters tape in your bag and use 2 layers on the crown if you are loaning your club to be hit.
I had a bad experience just this past season with a brand new driver. I took advantage of 'end of season sales' at an online golf place and bought a beautiful Cobra F-Max Airspeed driver. Sure enough on one of my first 3 or 4 rounds I popped one up and was shocked to see that not only did it leave a scratch but worse, the paint CHIPPED!!! I even went as far as contacting Cobra because I thought it really shouldn't have happened but I didn't get anywhere so I ended up being so sick of looking at it that I used a paint marker to touch it up. Possibly the worst thing about being a not good golfer is being hard on the equipment lol.
The toothpaste trick works to remove sky marks just don't get too aggressive with your rubbing. Is there any way to fix the driver's face with little scratches and knicks?
Treat your driver head like a cars paint job. If it works for one, should work for the other. Rubbing compound may be more than you need but I've never tried it so can't say for sure.
Toothpaste versus the tooth gel is simple. The paste is a fine pumice. There are grains in it which acts as a sanding effect. Gel is just mouth soap...
nice video on how to repair personal clubs i like to see video on changeing putter shaft like the ones with shaft down in head.puting different style shaft like straight or one bend to double bend what it consetant of like loft an lie angles ect....
What do you do with a mat black finish? I just got a new Ping G425 driver and while at the range I put the club back in my bag with the head cover off as I was mid session. Well I had one of my alignment sticks in there and it put a light scratch across the head from about midway out towards the toe. It is slightly visible after wiping it off with my wet towel. With the mat black finish, is there anything I can do that can work that scratch out without sanding the entire top of the club? I was thinking of using a brown paper bag as a buffing process. I don't have a buffing wheel. Any advise would be greatly apricated.
a different subject-but if you put a TT s300 xp 115 gram 6 iron shaft into a 7 iron- does that change it to a regular flex, or somewhere in between....or what exactly will it do to the performance of the club..
Soft stepping as you are referring to will give you a little more launch height and spin and also results in a slightly lighter weight result. Flex won't change enough to consider it R now, but will be slightly softer. Most golfers probably won't even notice a difference from 1 step soft or hard (going 8 iron shaft into 7 iron). May also want to check out this video as it kind of gets into this. ruclips.net/video/Juw6aCNlgDE/видео.html
Yes, any paste type product with some sort of abrasive element suspended in it will work. I chose toothpaste because everyone has it at home. Just FYI, this method won't work on matte finish heads.
I once watched a RUclips video about a ‘transformative way to hit driver’ we it made me hit the ceiling in my driving range. So I used T cut , the same paste for car scratches . Then apply car polish. Completely gone.
The face is a different animal because it does not have a clear coat on it or paint. It's a different finish. If it has a shinny finish you can use a scotch bright pad or belt and see if you can get some of those small sand marks off it. If the face has a dark finish, not sure how much you can do with it.
I have only used it on the clear coat on the crown. Does not work on matte finish. Not sure if it would work on the face. Don't think it could hurt to try. Might lessen the pitting you get from sand and dirt.
So what Im getting from this video is that if I used my automotive cut and polish and polishing head on the clearcoat on my driver, Id do a much better job than this ghetto toothpaste solution. Probably should have gone with that...

Awesome. Glad it worked!
This literally just happened to me with my new TSi3... I thought it would be a good idea to practice at night 🤦🏼
Hope this works

Amazion. Buy some dummy tape!! Works great🤘
Last weekend first tee put one on my TSI3(just second round using it) toothpaste removed it perfectly. Really glad I don’t have that mark staring me in the face any more!
Totally worked on a minor scratch!
Definitely works best on those surface scratches. Thanks for watching.

Sorry to hear about your uncle. Glad that the tip helped keep that driver in the bag. Your uncle had good taste. Great driver still today!
Great video! would be interested in a deeper dive into repair of the paint on the crown when this doesn’t do enough.
Great vid played today hit a pop up was mad about it brand new driver came home went on RUclips to see if anyone made a video about take scuff marks out of drivers 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for the tip came out great
Great. Glad it took care of the problem. Thanks for watching.
Had a minor sky mark on my TSi3. It worked perfectly. The best part is my driver smells minty fresh.
Preferred by 4 out of 5 dentists.

Incredibly useful

Wow! It works! Thank you man!
does this work only on clear coat driver heads or with paint coated ones to
Should work on any with a gloss finish. Matte finish is a different story. Have not found a way to fix matte issues.
You kind of look like Jim Furyk. Great tutorial.
A.J. HI do you think this could work on android phones and tablets paul
Totally worked! Thank you! Subscribed
Fantastic. Thanks for the support!
when I used to be that bad I used T CUT or 🐢 wax even tried that mark pen for cars , best seemed to be SHARPE PEN paul
Thanks for the helpful video. Do you have any suggestions on how to remove early signs of rust on the face of a driver?
Scotchbrite pad or similar to remove the rust. Then just keep it clean and dry when not in use.
this video could’ve been ten times shorter
The face of a 5 wood I have is marred. Almost looks like it’s been used for gravel raking. lol. Any thoughts on how to refurbish a face to a wood?
Not sure other than actually sanding down the face to smooth it out.
Thanks for the reply reply:)
Always looking for ways to extend the life of my clubs. Thanks a bunch. Oh by the way, would rubbing compound work or would it be too severe.
Treat your driver head like a cars paint job. If it works for one, should work for the other. Rubbing compound may be more than you need but I've never tried it so can't say for sure.

Thanks for sharing. I will try this out soon.
Works great on any gloss finish head. Will not work however on matte finish like Ping or PXG. Still trying to find a good fix for those.
You are having Bob Ross moments while describing. Without the fro’.

I've yet to find a good answer to fixing matte finish heads short of sanding it down and starting over.
@@EFGMC Thanks for the reply. I did buff it with a brown paper bag. It helped a little. I might try steel wool.
Interesting technique. One thing I'll say, if you are anything like me, be REALLY CAREFUL NOT TO DROP THE SOAPY CLUBHEAD WHILE DOING THIS :)
My buddy calls them idiot marks. Especially when I do it to his clubs !!!😂😂😂
I only call them that when I do it myself!
Works great to fix yellow headlights lens too.
Would this work well on a Scotty Cameron?
Should work on any glossy painted surface with a clear coat. Matte finish will not work.
Can you repair chip on crown TSR3 driver titliest
I've never done it.
what is that in sterling paul
The time I popped up the club!?!... that's my famous 350 yard drive 200 out 150 up
Had one of those today with a 3 wood, luckily just caught enough of the face as to not leave a permanent mark. Deep exhale.
i have a dent near the sole...can those be fixed?
I have never tried to fix a dent.
That usually means club retirement in my book unless you're okay playing it that way.
Save yourself the time and effort .
Plain water and a Mr. Clean Eraser takes it off clean EVERY TIME
Will it work on a Scotty putter?
No I don't think so. Requires a clear coat and I don't think putters have one.
Nu finish scratch remover always worked best for me
Polish or scratch remover?

I cleaned my ancient sword with this toothpaste it really works.
My buddy's favorite line to me, "You drove that ball 400 yards. 300 of it straight in the air."
Would auto polish work?
Yes, any paste type product with some sort of abrasive element suspended in it will work. I chose toothpaste because everyone has it at home. Just FYI, this method won't work on matte finish heads.
I once watched a RUclips video about a ‘transformative way to hit driver’ we it made me hit the ceiling in my driving range. So I used T cut , the same paste for car scratches . Then apply car polish. Completely gone.
T cut is good.
Is there a way to clean up the face of the driver?
Not really if it's a colored style finish on it. Not without refinishing the whole head.
Did you remember to floss afterwards?
Use a magic eraser. Much quicker and does such a good job
If you have one, definitely use it.
Can you also suggest if it works for driver face as well?
The face is a different animal because it does not have a clear coat on it or paint. It's a different finish. If it has a shinny finish you can use a scotch bright pad or belt and see if you can get some of those small sand marks off it. If the face has a dark finish, not sure how much you can do with it.
@@EFGMC thanks, it's g400 and it's dark finish. Will be diffocult
@@KB-ih7ht unfortunately no
What about the marks on the carbon crown head
Autoglym scratch repair kit does the job too.
True. Most car related products will translate to golf club paint as well, if you have them available.
Will this work on the bottom part of the face?
I have only used it on the clear coat on the crown. Does not work on matte finish. Not sure if it would work on the face. Don't think it could hurt to try. Might lessen the pitting you get from sand and dirt.
t cut for cars works even better
I've seen that, though most people won't just have it lying around the house like toothpaste.
people would take that uv clear coat put on there clubs you never scratch them well worth it cheap as it really is just take out in sun dries instant
I haven't tried that yet. Might have to test it out. Thanks for watching.
My cousin said you're watching fishing shows up hile we're fishing.
There called sky marks. If you sky it you buy it. Use T cut. The best.
This works because toothpaste is just food grade polish.
thank you!!!
Glad it helped.
fill in with nail varnish of the same colour as the club head leave it dry the polish it again until they are gone
So that is yout driver?? LOL. JK.
Good vid, keep'em coming.
That crown had a workout. It was a junior golfer's that we reshafted.
The gel doesn’t work as well as the paste
That's what Flitz is for
Automotive scratch remover cream fills and polishes sky marks. Nice video, but way to long for such a simple fix.
I use turtle wax colour magic 100 %
i hate watching a 1 minute video ends up a 10 minutes video.
Yet you still had time to make this comment lmao makes sense
@@adpruett15 how did you know I finished watching? Exactly 1 minute I commented and closed.
It's called a 'sky mark' mate
So many names, none of them good!
Use flitz...not fn toothpaste
I tried this on my taylormade stealth driver and it ruined the crown. It scuffed the crown and made it have a matte texture where I rubbed it.
So what Im getting from this video is that if I used my automotive cut and polish and polishing head on the clearcoat on my driver, Id do a much better job than this ghetto toothpaste solution.
Probably should have gone with that...
we see most of you, not much the driver.
Speak up dude
