There is a seller on ebay who has touch up paint that is mixed up to be brand specific. You might want to give that a try.

I just got some paint and repainted the whole thing. That way you can pick what color you want

Well i have played with it about ten rounds already. its been rather cold and no paint problems. i even had an ever so slight, ok it was a sky ball, but it did almost nothing to the head. i really have to look to see it. The krylon paint will work just as good as the paint my friend made for me.

Also i should add the krylon paint is an all weather paint so it should hold up to the elements

My point is the picture to me looks terrible...the beautiful two tone glossy paint used on woods and drivers is covered up with that goo...driver paint is similar to paint used for cars; would you paint your car with krylon regardless of how it held up? To me, it just looks cheap and would make me upset standing over it at address...

I think you are thinking of a different paint. this paint is supposed to be textured. it looks kinda like the bottom of a 905R. Its not suposed to be smooth and glossy.

But that is my point...the textured paint would throw me off big time...to each his own, the paint job looks to have very clean lines to it and you are justified in taking pride in doing that job, esp. the top back edge with the shadow two tone edging...there is no way I would be happy with that on my club is all I'm saying...
