marmaduk Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I just got a set of raw Yururi Flatback's that I plan on refinishing with a black oxidehttps://www.tourspecgolf.com/yururi-flat-back-blade-iron-3-pw.html I also have a set of Yururi Tour wedges. https://www.tourspecgolf.com/hottest-golf-products/yururi-keigekiku-tour-wedge-head.html My question is: am I able to refinish the wedges the same way as the irons? I'm not 100% sure if the wedges are "raw". They were originally dark black but have turned a more regular steel colour where I make contact on the clubface..and also where I make contact on the hozzel. There is a tiny amount of rust on the sole but not what I would imagine an actual raw wedge would get. I think you can only use a black oxide on raw steel but I just don't know and don't want to mess up my wedges. Cheers, Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmaduk Posted May 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Here’s a photo of the wedge. The photo doesn’t do it justice it looks a lot more gray than it is. It was dark black when I got it new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Both the blade and gekku wedge originally had kurozome black finish. its not a durable coating but feels great and wears nicely. It is not RAW. RAW = no finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmaduk Posted June 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 Thanks Chris. Even though it is not raw can I still refinish the wedge with black oxide? I thought the black oxide was for a raw finish only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the black oxide was for a raw finish only. It’s a coating, not a plating so black oxide will still react with the metal as if it were raw.
