Love watching these works of art take on a born again new look , I'd love to do this sort of thing when I retire as a hobby but you make it look way easier than it is. Awesome job
Great job love that finish look you did. I'm going to try it, thanks for the insight in this video. I hope my putter will look half as good. Thanks again
Overall a great job and beautiful putter. One thing though, I can see the milling marks on the head. I don't know if that's on purpose. I'm new to golf and have seen something similar on other putters. If not, some wet/dry sandpaper and gun oil would get them out using a block sander.
Great job on this putter!! I'd like to see you restore one of the older tei3 Scotty's, like the Newport with the terrilyum inserts like you have on one of your short videos... I've got an old Santa Fe that needs refinishing. And I REALLY don't want to screw it up...
@@scratchlessputters what is the name of the fill paint on the Laguna? You did a nice job on this Putter and I’m seriously looking into having mine refinished. Thanks
You can torch oil can it. Or gun blue it. I believe if your Bettinardi is made of soft carbon steel you can accomplish those finishes. You need to find that out first. If it’s stainless steel you could Powdercoat it.
That's an aspect ratio I haven't seen for a while! Great job! Makes me want to find an old Scotty and do one myself. It's a shame they also seem super expensive regardless of the condition they're in
I really enjoyed this clip, and I decided to follow your case with my old Scotty Cameron Tei3. But I have some questions: (1) Why beads blasting before torching? Would there be any difference in quality between with and without beads blasting before torching? (2) How long have you heated up the putter head with the heating gun before torching it. (3) What gas have you used in torching? Please, provide me with some tips.
Bead blasting smooths the minor imperfections in the putter that you may not be able to access with just the wheel. I usually heat up the putter head for about 5 minutes all over before torching, and use just a generic Butane torch you can buy at any hardware store.
The Laguna is my fave model and this was an excellent tutorial. Looking to finding an "older" one in need of a makeover and do a bit of a proj where I can use it afterwards. Thanks.
Wow! Fantastic job! I want to correct my Scotty Cameron phantom x which is black and has some chips along the top front edge. What kind of paint should I use? Acrylic flat?
You should weigh it pre and post finish. I'm curious how much you took off. You said the deburring wheel could take off 5-8g's just from that. Great job again.
Absolutely stunning.......I'd be really interested to know, (for no good reason really), but do you ever weigh these before and after to see if the weight goes up or down and why?
@@scratchlessputters I would be interested in paying for some work if that is something you can do. I can send you some photos of the one I have as example.
That is my dream putter, and you made it even better! I love your paint fill process. What is your paint of choice? I tried so many, but have yet to find a real durable paint.
Great work, fantastic craftsmanship! What type of oil do you use after the torching process? If you sprayed with water during the torch woukd you achieve an iridescent finish?
Dude that’s awesome. I’ve been trying my hand and have had some success haha. Or at least enough for to want to keep doing it. I was curious though, what kind of oil do you dip it in after the heat?
I have a 1982 SC NEWPORT that I neglected to oil etc. over the years so am looking to restore it myself as Titleist want 250 sterling to do it. I can do the clean up and polishing myself and know a company that can skim mill the face to replicate original mill pattern. I’m willing to give the heat bluing myself but just asking if you use any particular oil grade. 👍
I have an old Scotty Cameron gun metal and it has rust on it. I would love to get this done to mine. But I don't have the talent, persistance or the tools....
Hello from Korea. It was great video that I need to know. And I have a question about oil. When You done torch what kind of oil shoud I dip. Please let me know. Thanks.
I didn’t take the time to scroll through the comments but do you take on restoration projects? I have a Scotty that has huge sentimental value to me that I would love to have you quote me on the restoration….
Do you store your acetone in a paint can? Do you save it in that and reuse it as well. Starting to get into restoration and want to handle acetone appropriately. How do you end up disposing it?
I do! I use this to take off the paint before I start my restoration, but use fresh acetone when I'm doing cleanup on my paintfill. I store it in metal or glass containers. I'd check your local dump if they dispose of hazardous chemicals
@@travism3510 there are plenty of lower end options but they typically lack rigidity. A center dot can be drilled with a cheap drill press and a fixture. Milling a face truly flat is much more equipment intensive.
Very nice, what kind of oil did you use after the torch? Also do you know what kind of metal the head was? Will this method work with 304 stainless steel?
@@scratchlessputters As in not forged. I have a cheaper, fairly old putter that I just can't seem to get out of my bag. The face needs refinishing for accuracy's sake and it looks like ass. lol
@@MrBillSabre it depends on the head material for sure. Stainless steel you can refinish/powdercoat, but won't get you the colors you get when torching carbon steel. I'd check what the putter head is made of. Tried a Ping once but won't again. It was made of manganese bronze and highly toxic to work with.
I’m pretty sure it looks better now that it did when it was brand new….Great job 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great job, that putter looks great now. Thanks for showing us the process you use
Wow.... very impressive. The final color is amazing!
Love watching these works of art take on a born again new look , I'd love to do this sort of thing when I retire as a hobby but you make it look way easier than it is. Awesome job
Thank you so much!

Scotty Cameron’s are easily the best looking putters out there! Especially the early to mid 2000’s
can't disagree!
You did great job mate. Your patience is incredible.
Wow!!!! Ur so skilled brother, I'm so happy for u!!!!
Excellent restoration! Quality workmanship 👌👌
Great work! Your craftsmanship is impressive.
I have one of these putters... Bought around 1998 ish. Still as good as new.
On the verge of doing this with a Yes! Putter that is being delivered sometime today. This has been very helpful. Thank you for all the tips.
this method works on carbon steel, so may want to verify head material
looks brand new!
Really amazing transformation. Great job 👍👍
Thank you!
Great job love that finish look you did. I'm going to try it, thanks for the insight in this video. I hope my putter will look half as good. Thanks again
Great video! I want to do something similar with my own Scotty.. But it takes some big balls to do this with my current player! Thanks for the help!
good luck! let me know if you have any questions
Beautiful job.. very well done.
WOW. Great job. Putter looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing!!!

I just wish for club manufacturers would bring back these beautiful putters like Titleist Ping Wilson Taylor Made etc
Beautiful job tho sir!! Well done

@@scratchlessputters the putter is carbon steel

Definitely can do this yourself super easy. I know your right old beat up Scottie’s are so much, you should someday if you get the chance
Very Nice!!

Wow! Well done.

Amazing !
I’ve got a 1998 Newport 2, gunna give it a shot, what kind of deburring wheels should I use?
Wow! Fantastic job! I want to correct my Scotty Cameron phantom x which is black and has some chips along the top front edge. What kind of paint should I use? Acrylic flat?
I use Testor's enamel paint
Awesome job you have done there it looks fantastic, Can I ask you what kind of oil did you used ?
I use 2-stroke cycle (blue) dye and wrench oil. Any penetrating oil
Awesome job
Great work. You have IRISH heritage? Accent and words indicate yes 👏🏻
You should weigh it pre and post finish. I'm curious how much you took off. You said the deburring wheel could take off 5-8g's just from that. Great job again.
Great video man, looks fantastic
Thanks man!
Hey, amazing job man! Can You tell me what kind of polishing wheel do You use?
This is class.
Very much interested in your oil mix. Ty!
Absolutely stunning.......I'd be really interested to know, (for no good reason really), but do you ever weigh these before and after to see if the weight goes up or down and why?
I don't, but that's a good call!
Do you ever mill the back bumpers on putters? Some of the old Scotty cameron newport 2 used to have milling on the back.
Haven’t tried it but definitely will sometime.
@@scratchlessputters I would be interested in paying for some work if that is something you can do. I can send you some photos of the one I have as example.
Great work!!!!….
18:33 18:33 18:33
That’s awesome
Thank you for the video Scratchless Putters. What happens if you skip the oil quenching step? Would the blue finish still last?
Also will this torched blue look work on SS?
If you skip the oil quench part you’ll have no penetration of oil in the surface to protect from moisture. Which will result in the chance of rust.
@@johny719 if you try torch SS it’ll turn a bronze/gold finish. No vibrant colors like the blues and purples etc.
That is my dream putter, and you made it even better! I love your paint fill process. What is your paint of choice? I tried so many, but have yet to find a real durable paint.
I use Testor's
Love the work, when putting the heat gun on the putter, have you put anything on it to make it turn blue or does it just do that with the heat?
It's from the heat.
... wowzee! Wann have one like this...
Where do i get that buffing pad, I bought one from ebay but it was so hard it had sparks coming off my golf club
Looks great! Where are you located?
From Ireland living in South Carolina
How do you clean the club after the oiling process to keep the shine?
Great work, fantastic craftsmanship! What type of oil do you use after the torching process? If you sprayed with water during the torch woukd you achieve an iridescent finish?
I use 1:1 2-stroke cycle blue dye and any penetrating wrench oil. Haven't done any water spray to date
Great work! Is that a Yee-Yee hoodie is see??? I knew I liked you!

how much was that milling machine ?! and was it made for that or no?
Milling machines can be bought used for a few thousand dollars and are general purpose tools - not specific to milling clubs.
@@poetac15 nice. Are there cheaper ones that can do stuff like mill a sight dot on a putter or maybe re-mill a putter face type shit?
@@travism3510 there are plenty of lower end options but they typically lack rigidity. A center dot can be drilled with a cheap drill press and a fixture. Milling a face truly flat is much more equipment intensive.
What type of oil do you use. That's exactly what I'm doing know
What kind of oil are you dipping the putter in?
Very nice, what kind of oil did you use after the torch? Also do you know what kind of metal the head was? Will this method work with 304 stainless steel?
I use 2 stroke motor oil blue dye) and penetrating oil. 50/50.
SS won't produce the blues/purples, only carbon can get that range
Thanks for your advice
Does it matter whether the putter head is cast? Does that limit what kind of refinishing is possible? Really enjoyed this, thanks so much
what do you mean by cast?
@@scratchlessputters As in not forged. I have a cheaper, fairly old putter that I just can't seem to get out of my bag. The face needs refinishing for accuracy's sake and it looks like ass. lol

Very nice.... Ball Park price for this restoration ?
Estimate-175
Outstanding
how durable is doing this finish is it worth it on irons
Linseed oil? Perhaps light motor oil?
