Predator cue question

[Charles Hartfield]

I’m considering purchasing the cue pictured below. The description says the handle is black painted maple. If the cue was ever damaged and had to be recoated, would the handle have to be repainted?

I have a predator SP. I like it.
What do you mean by recoated?

It's a right pain to try to refinish these cues.
If you want a ebony/maple sneaky, buy a ebony/maple sneaky..

if you were to chip through the paint, yes. you would have to repaint the chip.

I mean the clear coat. If I understand correctly, if the there’s a chip in the butt, the clear coat must be sanded off down to the wood and reapplied. I would be worried about the paint getting damaged if that happened.

It’s a cheap cue man.. it’s supposed to be a player that you don’t worry about that sort of think. If you were getting a 3k+ predator blak series or something I get it but not this.
