Today I coked my 588 RTG+ DSG wedges, and they came out beautifully. Obviously my objective is to eliminate glare, and I am going to assume that the raw wedge has some glare considering it is much brighter than the rtg finish. Do you recommend that I let the club naturally rust on its own, or should I soak them in salt water overnight? Any help would be great, thanks a ton.

If you play a couple of times in the morning mist, they will rust within a few days. My Vokeys that I coked sure did.

If they are wet, and exposed to air - they will rust (6th grade chemistry don't fail me now) don't worry about that - it'll happen quick.

In the Titleist bag on the ClicGear 2.0:

PILOT: Titleist 910 D2 Axivore Tour Red

3 WOOD: Callaway 3-Deep 13*

Hybrid: TaylorMade RBZ 22*

IRONS 3-PW: Mizuno MP-32

WEDGES: Vokey TVD 54* SM5 58*K

PUTTER: Rife 2-Bar Blade

BALL: Penta 5

I wouldn't soak the club... throw salt water into a spray bottle and spray the club

you'll get a lot more rust this way
