I picked up a set of old forged Titleist 775cb irons which had seen better days, so I decided to give them a new life. I cleaned and polished the soles which were badly scored, and sand blasted the faces and rear of the irons. I tried doing the paint fill but just ended in a mess so I have decided to leave the paintfill alone for now. I found the black waterbase paint would not cleanup and blead into the sandblast grain now in the metal, i might experiment with coating the surface with some acrylic auto paint and then fill the lettering. This would seal the surface and allow a clean up without penetrating the grain of the metal. Here are some pics showing the progress.DSCN1832.jpgDSCN1833.jpgDSCN1834.jpgDSCN1835.jpgDSCN1838.jpgDSCN1839.jpg
