I purchased an OB 2 plus LD shaft. The ferrule is brown and is stacked maple. The shaft never felt comfortable to me and I realized that I am used to a pro taper and the OB had a conical taper. I had the taper changed to a pro taper and the taper length turned to my liking. I am still having problems though as the tip always looks, to my eyes that it is mushroomed, even though it is not and I am attributing it to the color of the ferrule. I want to paint the ferrule white. What should I use and how should I apply it. I am not a cue builder nor do I work on cues but I thought this might be a simple process. I only use the shaft to play 3 cushion and on Diamond bar boxes. I use my regular shafts on 9 footers which is pretty much all that I play on. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
