It wont rust and +DLC is more durable that stock. PXG claims they are the first to use it in golf yet JDM fanatics know it's been used in Japan for around 10 or so years i.e Kitada-san and perhaps a couple others. After many many whacks, you will see thin silver lines revealing the chrome plating but only from rocks n hard stuff. DLC does make your clubs more durable against smaller dings and scratches. Feel is a little firmer but I would still rather have the DLC than not. This is the good stuff Japanese DLC and it isn't cheap. 120 per club more. 50 head minimum batches. smoked or mirror are the options. I will post more pics.

Does club works offer this as a finish?...I noticed you said 50 heads min.
October 30, 20186 yr That CB looks sick. I could take care of a set of them and make sure they feel better?

Hey Chris, Why don't you send that set of CB's to Hutchy who can play with them over his summer and then send them to me in May. We promise we will give thorough reviews of the finish and the heads. Sounds like a deal to me.

Sevens look way better...?
October 30, 20186 yr This DLC finish is tempting, but I do like the feel of my standard Copper Undelay + Satin Chrome finish. Edited October 30, 20186 yr by nobmontana
October 31, 20186 yr DLC finish on putters is nice. VERY very firm and impact is instantaneous... no soft frozen butter on those!
