Rubber Problem?

TTlover11 · Apr 2, 2014

Hi Guys.

I had a air bubble on my bat so I decided to take both sheets of rubbers off and re-glue it on the exact same blade. Both sheets of rubber don't fit the bat anymore.Can someone explain? I don't have any money to buy new rubbers.I have have an upcoming Tournament!.

This is nothing weird, I can't explain exactly why but the sponge always lose volume when you pill it of. You can use any kind of booster on it and it will get expanded again, or you can just stretch it to cover the bat, but it's not the best solution because rubber will feel a little harder and lose some flexibility

Okay thanks will try the booster.

Good decision, but be careful, if you put too much you will have to waite for some time

It loose volume because you stretch it when it was glued on.

I recommend you take your current balde/rubbers to some one who has experience and help you sort it out - before you make this problem worse.
Its good to learn and do it yourself, but since you say you are tight on budget and time, maybe this isn't the right time to pay school fees.

PS, what air bubbl are you talking about? a bad glue job (uneven surface) or topsheet and sponge no longer stuck together?

Yeah your right.I bought my bat made up from Tee sports(Tenergy 80 on Primorac) a couple weeks backI think it must of been a bad glue job as both sides were starting to come off.

Oh... Is it coming off from the side of the blade. Sponge is loose from the blade/wood?
That isn't air bubble then....

Air buble is normally in the centre of the rubber.

Yeah the red side of the rubber had an air bubble so I decided to take it off and roll it out and black side sort of just started coming off.I boosted it two days ago and now it looks like I'll have to cut it's expanded so much haha now I have to glue it only done it twice.First time disaster and 2nd time was better.
