How To Paint Your Golf Clubs
Step 1: Clean your clubs
Before you start painting, you need to clean your golf clubs. You need to make sure that there is no dirt in the spots you are painting. I recommend using hot water and an old toothbrush to clean your clubs.
Step 2: Painting
Before you start painting, make sure you have an evenly folded-up tissue and water poured into a container. First, pick the colour you want to use, lightly squeeze the bottle, and fill in the area you want to paint on your golf club.
Step 3: Wiping the paint
Once you fill in the golf club, grab your evenly folded tissue and dip it in the water, making it damp. You do not want the tissue to be soaking wet, just damp. Then give the painted area one whip across.
Step 4: Let it dry, and don’t worry
Even though there is still paint all over the club, and it probably doesn’t look great right now, don’t panic. This is normal, and you want to let the paint dry for 4 to 7 minutes so that you can scrap/peel off the extra paint with the rubbing alcohol and Q-tip. Allowing it to dry makes it easier to clean off the unwanted paint and keep the wanted paint.
Step 5: Cleaning off the extra paint
After 4 to 7 minutes, grab your Q-tip and dip it in the rubbing alcohol. Start scrubbing off the extra paint with the Q-tip. When touching up fine details, try to be careful not to scrub the paint out of the intended area. Some tough-to-paint areas might need an extra coat or two.
Step 6: Touch-ups
Once you clean off the extra paint on the club, let it dry for at least six hours before you use it. If you need to paint another coat, I recommend waiting 4 hours, but if you need to paint it sooner, I suggest waiting at least 30 minutes. After finishing the touch-ups, you should wait 24 hours before using the club.
