Project Bolero Rescue

Recommended Posts

I picked up this sad gem at a local swap meet and did what I could to restore it. I contacted the Studio and, due to California laws, they don't do restorations on aluminum putters. It was soooooo pitted that in the beginning, I wondered if I could ever get it smooth, again. Well, I got it this far and next step is to bead blast it to satin and have it anodized, locally.

Let me know what you think and enjoy the pics, as sad as the pre-restoration ones are.

Thanks for your comments,

Yes, when I first got it home, I was wondering what I had gotten myself into. I did some checking and saw what used Boleros were selling for and realized that it wasn't going to be a "profit" deal. It was soley a labor of love, or just hoping to bring back a Cameron to some sort of glory. Total time, up to now is probably around 3 solid hours. I would work on it for a while, leave it for a day, then pick it up again. I wish I had gotten pics of the sole plate, prior to starting out. It looked like it had been painted white...............severall coats. It cleaned up easy, now the hard part is finding an anodizing company that will take a single piece. I guess I just need to spend some time on the phone and get it done. When its finished, I definitely post some pics.

I'm not sure why your spending so much time on that putter but If you must and want it to look its best I suggest having it powder coated in black then adding a nice bright paint fill and new grip.
