I just use a q-tip and run it over the spot I want to clear of paint and sice it's a gel based stripper and runs into the stamping and works it's magic.

Go to Advance Auto Parts or Autozone and ask about tal-strip. Make sure to get some Nitrile gloves since if this stuff touches your skin it's worse than battery acid. And do this is in a well ventilated area. I just do it outside and wear gloves and I'm fine.

what about falk (hardware store)? it's like 3 minutes away from my house and the nearest autozone is like 20 mins away, and idk where any advance is..
 
They should have a stripper there. Make sure it's gel based though

I got some pick tools from the hardware store. They sort of look like the scrapers that a dentist uses. It was very easy to get the paint out with it. Just have to be careful not to scratch outside of the area that is to be painted.

Couldn't find the pink in the Testors brand so settled for the Pink Fine tip oil based Sharpie paint pen, and white Testors paint(my first go round with Testors)

I'm not sure it's way easier by just making an account a photo bucket or flickr, they're free

got em up dont know y they dont just show like every one elses tho. driver isnt finished yet and the putter face needed to be smoothed out a lil.
 
no the face insert on that one is machined aluminum i think sry its titallium what ever that is. the finish on it is put opn kinda like chrome i would assume. you would have to scratch it off somehow if that would even remove it.
 
Base coat of silver and top coat of clear red. Also, it is mostly cleaned up here, but needs some finishing touches.

now that is sharp nice job
 
finally finished my first paint-fill project! too lazy to post them onto photobucket right now (might later) but i did my vokey's pink (the # and the lines next to the BV), my RAC pink (#, TM logo, and RAC logo), my irons light blue (just the #'s) and i did all of my dads irons pink (just the #'s) 'cause he can't see the original black very well. if i would've known the red was going to turn out pink, i would've used the orange on his... oh well, either way, it turned out pretty dang well for being my first time. i got a chip of paint on my eye and splashed acetone all over my body, but i think i'm still alive, so that's a plus. big thx to Uriel (Satchmo) for giving me basically step-by-step instructions on how to sweeten my sticks :)
