I sanded both the ball and pin, then I primed the pin with leftover kilz and then painted the neck and face with acrilic paint, I havent put a seal on yet but I will once it dries a few days, for the ball I sanded and washed it and used liquid nail to place the glass beads, then let it cure about 3 days, I used the grout with no sand so the glass beads would'nt get scratched. After it dries for about 2 days I sealed it with grout sealer and put a layer of poly on it. Generally grout is not good in extream cold, so I am going to bring my ball for the winter.
