I’ve ventured into the world of club building. While I’ve always managed my own grips, I wanted to broaden my skills and knowledge in other areas. This led me to a fun project: adding a creative touch to some older clubs in my backup bag.
Golf clubs are often plain and standard, lacking the personality we infuse into other aspects of our game. This article explores a simple solution to bring a personal touch to your golf clubs.
The Problem
Golf clubs, aside from head covers and grips, often lack individuality. What if we could add some personality to our golf gear, just as we do with clothing, footwear, bags, and other accessories?
The Solution
Discovering Acrylic Paint Pens
Testing the Pens
These pens offer waterproof and permanent paint, making them ideal for golf clubs and the wear and tear they go through in a given season. Their smaller tips are perfect for adding color to identification numbers, grooves and other intricate areas.
Customizing My Clubs
The paint pen’s ease of use and the ability to correct any mistakes with a paper towel left me pleasantly surprised. Next, I applied blue to my 58-degree wedge, achieving a slightly subtler effect on the black surface.
However, when I attempted to add orange paint to the alignment aids on my COBRA putter, I encountered some challenges. The orange paint on white paint felt slippery and didn’t produce the same polished look. In the future, I would use a paint stripper to remove the existing paint before applying the Acrylic Paint Pen.
I was pleased with the paint’s durability. I have played six rounds and practiced with these wedges in various conditions, cleaning them after every use and the paint fill has held up perfectly.
The Final Verdict
While I don’t know if I will do much with my main set of irons or putter, I will definitely be adding a touch of color to my wedges in my main set.
If you’re a DIY golfer seeking a straightforward and effective way to add color and personalization to your clubs, Acrylic Paint Pens are an excellent starting point. With 12 different color options, plenty of great reviews and being an Amazon Top Choice, the Acrylic Paint Pen have exceptional value for the price.
