Lol! I just picked up a Circa 62 that I'm seriously thinking about treating with Fowler orange

I've done some DIY paintfills on a couple of my Scotty Camerons. Like Josh, I used alot of tips from TCC.

Josh - you did a great job on the Vokeys. You didn't want to use a Rickie Fowler orange color on those :)

The 56 looks sharp, like the white on the BV logo. Would look cool with the all white spin milled logo also. I also apply custom paint to my sticks, nice way to change it up.

Thanks! I used acetone to strip the current paint away. Then I used acrylic model paint. I have used needle tip bottles in the past, but they are too burdensome to clean. Now I use toothpicks, a steady hand, and patience.

It's actually much easier than you think. Don't worry too much about staying within the lines, because a little acetone on a dry cloth, or clean paper cloth will wipe away any excess paint. There's lots of little tricks you'll pick up the more you do it. The best part is, if you screw it up, you can always take the paint out with acetone and start over fresh. I learned everything I know from cameroncollector.com They have a whole section on DIY paintjobs. It's a great place to learn and get inspiration.

It's also a great way to kill time in-between blizzards.

They look great. What type of paint did you use and where did you get it, and what type of brush did you use?

Looks good and very mature. I have to paint my 10 yr old son's clubs in the wildest colors we can find. I'll try to post a photo of his "Purple X" putter.

I kind of like the all black BV logo on the 52! I'd say black paint everywhere!
