I have batting cages in my business. Is there a paint to freshen up the look of the bats?

Answer 1

I would advise against painting a baseball bat.   Painting could hide a break in the wood, possibly causing injury if used.   I do recommend using a clear coat of Minwax Polycrylic (a water base) clear coat, available in satin, semi-gloss, or gloss sheens.   Just lightly sand the bat, with 220 grit paper, then apply 2 coats of the polycrylic clear coat.  It dries fast, has very little odor, and will improve the appearance of the wood.
