Great technique for cleaning irons and woods! May I suggest a few things I use....use several microfiber towels...to clean, dry, polish, apply coat of wax and buff off. I use Simple Green...10ml....in a plastic 5 gal bucket with 2 gals of warm water....let irons and putter soak for 1 hour...use your brush technique....but a separate rinse bucket of clean water. Advantage of a tall 5 gal bucket, is clubs stand up without falling over. To avoid rust, corrosion, pitting....and...to create a surface on clubs that has a protective barrier to minimize crud sticking, and easy wipe off....after wash & drying...I use Nevr Dull, a metal wadding pad to remove oxidation, wipe w microfiber towel, ...next a car detailing cleaner-wax...cleans any residue of Nevr Dull or oxidation off w cleaners,...next Turtle Wax Ice Spray Wax...only 1-2 spritzers on a foam round applicator disc/microfiber towel...then buff off....final coat of Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Spray Wax...same application and buff out...let ceramic wax cure x 24hrs then apply a second coat.....I like a Turtle Wax, other brands work well too...sounds like a lengthy process....can be 60 seconds or less per step if u organize your supplies. Results after months of use...no corrosion, crud comes off w a quick wipe of water and microfiber towel....shine on metal, paint, fiberglass shafts is second to none. Can use a car leather seat cleaner and preservative after your washing and drying of the grips...it keeps grips supple, grips tend to last a bit longer, and a little less prone to grime. Hope this helps!
Below Par thank u! I had been laid up postop surgery (I am fine) could not do anything strenuous so I started experimenting...kinda followed pro car retailers techniques, since I am an amateur car detailer, and was frustrated w my clubs getting dirty and scratched and turned it into a hobby. Lol...actually discovered my Ping Black dot irons were too long for me and found Orange dot irons at local thrift store...gave me more practice reconditioning clubs and giving my friend the Black Dots!! Karma...
I use different technique. For a chromed, forged set of irons as you have, the brass brush may be necessary but my Ping and Wilson irons are cast and I've found that using a 70/30% ammonia solution and an old toothbrush cleans the iron faces and grooves as well as the faces of my woods. Then, when dry, I give the faces of the irons and the wood clubheads a coating of Pledge lemon furniture spray. It makes wood headcovers easy to remove and put on and it prevents most buildup in the iron face grooves. (Probably not kosher per an R&A or USGA sanctioned tournament, but this is something about which I need not worry.) Also, I clean every club the evening after a round so there's never any dirt buildup. For grips, each gets a wipedown with a microfiber cloth and the ammonia solution and that seems to prevent any "slickness." Just my $0.02.
Ouch! That brush on the grips? Mind you, I don't think most golfers pay nearly enough attention to grips - given that you can completely re-grip a set for +_ £100. And it's a doddle to do at home.
Exactly that, I always say to people think how much stress they’re put under in your hands shot after shot and the time they’re on there! A small brush won’t hurt, will come up nice and new 🙌. I’d always recommend getting a pro to fit your grips, even if it’s easy, we are trained to do so and they should be spot on! Plus I’ve always offered free fitting with grips 😃 thanks for watching

There are levels to cleaning clubs and this is the highest I’ve ever heard! Should make a video on the process 🙌⛳️

Been meaning to clean my grips as mine are half white too but was worried about ruining them but seeing how yours came up I'll give it a blast. Cheers
Let us know how you get on 👌💪⛳️

Just got my P790s and got them a bit dirty. Thank you for the tips,cheers.
Great vid thanks for the tip
Thanks for watching ⛳️🙌
Wait for the “WhY wOuLd PeOpLe NeEd ShOwInG hOw To ClEaN tHiEr ClUbS”comments haha. Great video lads. Have a good weekend 👍🏻
I’m waiting trust me 😭😂😂😂 Cheers Lewis! 🙌
Good info; appreciate it! Don’t think the wife will let me use kitchen sink, tho?!? 😬
Might have to try the 5 gallon bucket technique...
😂😂😂 I did it when she was out 🙌
Give us (ClubPur) a try. Your wife would appreciate it!
I highly recommend doing this in a bucket outdoors or in the laundry sink not the kitchen sink.Otherwise good video.
I chucked my old irons in a sand blaster at work and they came out like new
