I have a fitter that I have been talking to about making me a custom set of miura's... I dont really need them... but they are too nice to pass up. Anyway... they only come in a raw finish.

Does anyone know where I can send them to have them finished (black pearl, copper, nickel, anything)? I hate having a wedge rust... especially ones like this.

I've seen some good work done by this company:

Thanks... it looks like they do Nickel and Copper plating as well... just what I was looking for.

You can also look online at GolfWorks and GolfSmith. They do refinishing and I've used them in the past with good results.

Rust is the best way to go. Chrome is blinding and I did not discover this flaw in the finish until after purchasing two chrome finished wedges last summer. I have a CG12 Mirror chrome and it can cause quite the bad headache when looked at wrong. I've since taken steel wool to dull the effect of the glare but black pearl and oil can are by far the best finishes

They offer some cool services and their black-fog treatment is awesome (albeit a little pricey).

I'm with you. I've never understood the idea of rusty wedges. I want my clubs to look nice and new even after years of use - however I always stop short of club head covers for my irons...

Looks to me like you swinging a club. Got any pictures of your refinish anywhere else?

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
