Dirtier the better bro! Love rusty. It’s nice to look at. I had the pleasure of using the original MG TM wedges, chrome, and the glare was insane on them at address. Been rusty ever since.
I don't think that I could ever do a full set of rusted clubs.
I do love a set of Trusty Rusty wedgea and bought a set of raw RTXs with the intention of doing the same.
I’m normally a rust fan but that clean MP33 looks exceptionally badass
geaux Yeah they looked super clean raw but decided to half set them odds/evens to keep a bag at my FIL’s and a bag in my trunk.
Man this is tough, because there’s a case for both.
raw: these things have seen some shit.
clean: these things saw some shit, and I went through shit to bring them back.
Either. Some irons look good rusted, other look like arse. Those look good rusted.
I love the way they both look. What is this rust juice you speak of?! My vokeys are raw but want that extra rust/patina as well.

@Jaybananapantsarthur speaks the truth. This is the ratio attached below that I used. It turns very quickly. I’ll spritz to get it started and spritz some more to wash off the crud that forms a couple of more times with 5 minute intervals and then let it sit for 10 minutes before rinsing it with water and then air drying it. I then took a dry rag and rubbed the crust off of it to avoid an orange mess transferring onto something.
Experiment with your time intervals. If you don’t like it you could always just dunk it in vinegar or take a scrub pad off of it and start over. Just get your ball marks off of the wedges because it’ll show up in the finish.
Peroxide, vinegar and salt
PS - Ckay may be on to something else to get rust but I've used the mixture I referenced in the past and it works quickly.
patina, patina, patina.
ckay Thanks man! 👊🏼 I’ll experiment with it this week.
Here’s a before and after on what my wedges looked like.
Yeah I’m big on the rust/used looking clubs
I’m ok with either but there’s no middle ground. Either keep them nice or go full rust.
I wish it was easier to strip chrome without losing headweight so I could rust my stuff up
CLTGamecock tip weights 👍 I had minimal loss, 1-4 grams. Measured pre/post and then ordered my weights accordingly.
ckay’s special sauce working like a charm.
Looks awesome! I’ll share the credit with @Jaybananapantsarthur
It’ll get darker over time 👍
@Jaybananapantsarthur what’s the rust secret?
Benzo it is a secret dammit
