Why do you reccommend sanding it? Thanks for the advice I will get it regluedTop ply sealed? -> sand it a little
Rubbers cut with scissors? -> learn to do it properly or use a cutting knife
You should not play with it that way and take it off and reglue it as soon as possible.
Staying with it will negatively affect playing and will increase the non sticky part quickly
Just a little sanding.Why do you reccommend sanding it? Thanks for the advice I will get it reglued
Yh he has revolution, i'll get some better glueMy problem is the blades I use are factory sealed and they do too good of a job. The top is often not stuck on properly.
I have not sanded my blade. My solution is to take the rubber off and do it again.
And that's why I moved away from Revolution 3 regular viscosity and I am now using Butterfly free Chack pro II, and put two layers on the blades and two layers on the rubber, with extra glue near the top.
Pressing it down is useless. In fact, I have abandoned my Revolution 3 racket pressor. It is useless. Unless you get the glue job right the first time it does not matter how long you press on it with the racker pressor: the result is the same. Racket pressor or putting heavy books on top of the racket after a glue job is a waste of time.
Butterfly Free Chack Pro II is thick. Revolution 3 normal viscosity is thin and a bit "running." As a result, Butterfly Free Chack Pro II just dries a lot quicker than Revolution 3 normal viscosity if all conditions being equal.The other thing is to let the glue dry on both blade and rubber before doing putting the rubber on the blade (some use a blow dryer to quicken the process). Sometimes the glue being too wet let's the glue layers absorb each other without bonding so you don't get adhesion between the layers but a thick layer absorbed to either the blade or the rubber.
Takes patience if you don't have a blow drier but give it at least 20 minutes even if you are impatient. If you are patient, letting the rubber glue layer dry is best. Getting the positioning right the first time is important as if you need to move the rubber around on the blade, that affects the adhesion.
not really - depends on which books. when i use the dictionary i play much more creative. when i use spicy magazines my shots are much more explosiveputting heavy books on top of the racket after a glue job is a waste of time.
Lol, maybe we should go out and buy some encyclopedia to put on the rubber! That way, our strategy will be more complicated when we play due to all the knowledge we get from the encyclopedia!not really - depends on which books. when i use the dictionary i play much more creative. when i use spicy magazines my shots are much more explosive
maybe , maybe not. whether you only sand the edges or the whole blade, the most important thing is that when sanding use a block and make 100% sure you do not sand the edges round . I sand the whole surface when the blade surfaces have a high gloss from the varnishing. It is called breaking the gloss and as mentioned above, it allows the glue to key into the blade surface.No need to sand the blade, just the edge.
