Turns out I’m 2 years older than you. Mind blown. Of course my username probably triggers images of a grumpy old man with a rifle...

I didn’t look the price up for black supports, but it only took a few cans of paint so it will definitely save some money to paint them. 3 Quote G400 Max G410 3W G410 3 & 4 Crossover i200 5-PW Vokey SM7 | 52-56-60 Taylormade Spider X Link to post Share on other sites

I didn’t look the price up for black supports, but it only took a few cans of paint so it will definitely save some money to paint them. I would like to paint ours. I assume that you disassembled everything to paint those. What special preparations did you use to be sure the paint sticks? I have trouble just getting a piece of tape to stick on our roof material. We've already looked at a few wrap ideas. What brand did you use for the wrap? Do you recommend them? And did you put the wrap on yourself? Any tips?

I have heard good things about the 3M wraps, but I've also heard they are a little difficult to put on and get good results. I disassembled everything, it's a pretty easy process.. only a few bolts holding the actual body on. I actually had a buddy paint the body and the roof as I don't have a spray gun, I did everything else myself. It was painted with a black base coat, then metal flake from Paint with Pearl was mixed in with the clear coat, which gives it a chameleon affect depending on the angle you're looking at it. As far as getting paint to stick to the plastic, you will want to make sure you sand/scuff the body and use adhesion promoter, that's the biggest thing. A lot of people recommend Bulldog adhesion promoter. 3 Quote G400 Max G410 3W G410 3 & 4 Crossover i200 5-PW Vokey SM7 | 52-56-60 Taylormade Spider X Link to post Share on other sites

Getoffmylawn 2,338 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Just signed up my 7-yr old son and I for a father-son 9-hole scramble. First time, and his first time in any sort of golf competition. It's as low-threat as it can get, but I'm still going to be nervous...with all this quarantine BS I won't have hit a ball in 3 weeks, I hope I can hold up my end! 4 2 Quote Driver: TR20 460, Vizard 60g Stiff FW: CBX 119 3w, 15, Project X Evenflow Blue 75g Stiff Hybrids: TS3 3 & 4H, Project X Evenflow Blue 85g Stiff Driving Iron: MP-20 HMB 3i, UST Mamiya recoil ES 780 F3 Iron: JPX 919 Forged 4- GW, Project X 6.0 Wedges:SM8 54 S Grind, 60 M Grind Putter: ER7B Tested the Honma TR20 460 driver Link to post Share on other sites
