    Has anyone done paint fill on their Scotty Cameron's themselves? If so what paint do you use or what do you use to do it?

    I use Testors paint to do all of my paintfill.

    Patience and thin coats are the key, a must is to let it dry and keep it covered (dust) .. I use Testers and a toothpick!

    Found that painters tape works well sight lines. Also another vote for Testers.

    What testors paint colour code have you found provides the best match to SC "red" touchup

    I used Tamiya 81027 Acrylic X27 Clear Red 3/4 oz. Find it at Amazon.

    Hi, today I tried out the Tamiya X-27 Clear red color,because I‘ve recently lost the middle dot. I‘m pretty sure the cold weather was to blame. As you can see, the color is absolutely the same, the middle dot is a little brighter,but after a little time and usage there will be no difference anymore. So, thumbs up for Tamiya!

    This is my gamer that I refinished/paint filled this past winter.. I did a golo 5 but I don’t have the pics on my phone.. it took about a week for the paint to dry for each layer, I put on an average of 3 coats.

    Trent,

    Nice job! What technique did you use on the topside alignment aid (the cross)? Did you remove the red paint or did you paint over?

    I have tried acetone and paint remover on the red, and it doesn't budge.

    Thanks!

    Here's a formula for Tiffany paint

    Testors model master
    1. Turquoise
    2. Glass White
    3. Sublime Green

    Mix the white and turquoise 50/50
    Add the barest trace of sublime green to get it right. It will probably take you a few times to get it right. If you have a Tiffany's box you can compare the color.
    The paint will dry a tiny bit darker then it looks when wet.

    Good luck!

    The paint itself is not the key. Keep a little acetone and a q-tip handy for removing the excess around the edges and the job is easy. I restored the gold and white paint on an old Coronado two, and changed the black line to silver on an original black golo select using only basic paint pens from Michael’s, and they not only look great, but have lasted for years.

    You must have a golden touch, because I gave mine a shot, and it came out like dog dodo.... :(

    Waiting for the T22 to come in, so I can send mine to the SC shop for some needed TLC

    I'm certainly no club repair guru but I've done a few wedges with Testor and toothpicks-they turned out great.

    Does anyone know the colour/code to match the original colour on a Scotty Cameron GoLo s5. I have seen Testers and Tamiya 81027 Acrylic X27 Clear Red mentioned here but are these a close match and is a lacquer finish also needed?

    I use Tamiya and small syringes from Walmart. I always explain what I'm doing with the syringes so they don't think I'm a drug user.
