Cleaning Clubs

Soaking them in Coke? Whats the purpose of that? Just curious.

Buffing wheel and buffing compound will help if the scratches are not gouged through or deep into the chrome.

I use the wet/dry towel method on the course. You gotta keep your grooves clean during the round.

Once winter comes to Ohio (even though we play all year round if it is above freezing and there is no snow on the ground), I fill up the down stairs bathroom sink (so I can watch the golf channel on my BIG screen TV) with warm soapy water and clean the head, and then use Comet (R) cleanser (the powder stuff) on the grips with a nylon brush, with a warm water rinse.

Don't forget your grips Gals and Guys. Clean grips are more important than shiny heads....

Coke is actually a pretty good chrome cleaner. Which kind of makes you wonder why we would drink it! I don't think it will repair major scratches, but if they are just surface scratches it will probably clean them up so they aren't as noticeable.

Thanks guys for the info.

I'm gonna try the "coke" method and see what happens. Hopefuuly that will do away with some srcathes. If that doesnt work I will break out the buffer wheel.

Anything that is semi acidic (vinegar, coke, etc) will polish up chrome and some other metals pretty nicely. But that is why coke is so bad for your teeth as well.

Vinegar works better but I just can't stand the smell. I'm a chem teacher so I got some tricks up my sleeves.

You mean I am supposed to clean them? Now that explains a lot.

Although they are usually pretty clean after I fish them out of the water hazard.

Also, if coke works, what about diet coke? My clubs are on a low carb diet...I don't want them getting all fat like that driver.

I clean my grips with alcohol .
I just use water and a nylon brush for the heads and grooves.

I think I will start trying the wet towel method on the course like others have mentioned.

I use this stuff from Golf Headquarters called "Lift Off". It's really cheap and keeps my clubs looking new.
