I have a Cleveland CG11 wedge that is starting to rust on the face. Is this normal? Will there be a problem?

Question

Its only rusting on the face...no where else.

Answer 1

it is made to rust . the thing to watch for is the groves the tend to wear faster with a rusty wedge . diet cola will take rust off . just cover club head let it sit clean up perfectly

Answer 2

Try to play at the range with it and see if after 15 balls  with a full swing if it doesn't just wipe off. Otherwise, you may try a wire groove brush. It shouldn't give a noticable affect on playablility though.

Answer 3

a lot of the wedges are made from different materials and they are supposed to rust the rust actually gives you more spin when the ball rolls up the face i have an oil can finish wedge which is really rusty but it really spins the ball

Answer 4

The CG11 Satin Wedge is chrome plated and shouldn't rust. The CG11 Black Pearl Wedge however has a Black Pearl finish over the Carbon Metal Matrix used to manufacture the club head and may allow some rusting. It won't detract from the performance of the club though.

Answer 5

no problems my Cg2 irons same thing on the low irons

Answer 6

It's normal dog....the pro's like it this way, cuts down on the glare....
