chiromikey Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 got this from nudgegolf and whoever pulled the shaft used too much heat and blistered the paint near the hosel. i had my buddy do his thing and i think this is how the 435 should have come from the factory!

+TourSpecGolfer Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 VERY nice, does he have a more matte version of his matte black? In the pics the paint looks thick. You kindly introduced me to him I should contact him as I've got a bunch of drivers that could be spruced up. I assume his background in is automotive air brushing?

chiromikey Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 his background is custom motorcycle painting but he had several factory contracts as well. this is a textured matte but i'l ask him about other finishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiromikey Posted April 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) looks great! any chance you can get a writeup from him on how to do this? unless its one of those dont try it at home kids things and requires pro skills and tools. this is not a diy job, it's professionally stripped, prepped, then sprayed in a booth. here's my other custom 435 and wood grain ryoma he painted for me...

Robb40 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Mike that looks great. My Jbeam/labomba will get a test run today. I may have that color done by Continental golf if it becomes my gamer. I love the flat black. My LLab looks great in this color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My LLab looks great in this color. not many people fall for the 435 their first time out so i won't expect glowing reviews from you right away. but it will be interesting to hear what you think after a few range sessions and a couple of rounds. have fun testing!

ant Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 ok, now i can definitely see its not a diy job :) dragon crown does look real cool too but its more like an art piece, i know something like that would bother me at address. i think matte finish is the way to go on a gamer.

chiromikey Posted April 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 at first thought one would think it might be a distraction but after the first swing or two, i never noticed it at address again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
