Ive been trying for a while to find out how to re-grain a cue and now i seem to have got it sorted i thought id show off my handy work, its not that difficult to do with a bit of time and patience and preperation!
here is the cue before - an old cue where most of the grain had come out leaving the cue rough with lines i could get my fingernail in
Moving onto the cue after ive applied the grain filler spreading it allround top 1/3 of cue to start with for first go (looks a total mess and i did think wtf had i done!
then gentle sanding down to reveal the colour of the wood leaving the grain filled and the end result
In the last picture you can see the top 3 (and most of the 4th chevrons have been done but lower doen has not. For my first real go im chuffed with the result - the cue feels super smooth and i cant feel the grain at all.
Few coats of linseed oil and should be all good!
