Bryan...... the coating you have on your clubs currently is more than likely a hi-build liquid epoxy. I find that most often, the cheapest quickest way will always win the bid on any sporting equipment ( I've done a lot of work for Spalding before so I use that as my example). If it chips and mars that easily from just bouncing around in your bag and putting on those funny looking socks....it's more than likely some sort of epoxy/lacquer wet spray application.

What I would do..... assuming your clubs are black or some sort of "metallic" is strip them down and give them a good old fashioned media blasting. Two-coat process with a polyeurethane or TGIC will be just fine. Very durable and specifically made to be chip/mar resitant. Powders I'd recommend highly are Black cat urethane,Bay Mist TGIC,Black Wrinkle and/or HFSD Clear TGIC for the topcoat (all found on this website, and all 19.95 for a 2 pound quantity.) The powders are of a high caliber that I've used before and strongly recommend to you guys (I get no endorsement fees from Caswell saying this, I assure you. Well.....one can hope I might in the future anyways, heh heh heh ) as they are industrial grade powders and the grind on them is nice. Re-assemble and Bob's your uncle so they say. Good luck with it and please post some pictures in this thread when you are finished if you are able, so that others may benefit from your experience. Hope that helped.....FORE!......Russ
