Hi all, I was just wondering can certain glues affect how a rubber performs? Sorry in advance if that sounds like a stupid question

Yes! Or so I believe as my friend that made table tennis glues said it does. He developed two types of glue: "Easy Glue" and "Easy Glue Green". The normal version is similar to Revolution and Tear Mender and are easy to remove, while the "Green" version can somehow increase the speed and feeling of the rubber with 3 or more layers of glue. By the way, he also developed 3 types of booster and a rubber/ball cleaner. I've used many glues (finezip, free chack, donic vario, tear mender) and some boosters (falco tempo and mineral oil), but I'm not a pro so I can only say that his products are at least as good as those that I had already tested.

Imagine your sponge is very porous. So it has lots of little "holes" all over. A thinner glue would seep into the holes before drying, while a thicker one wouldn't.

porous sponges prefer thicker right? that's why free chack is so thick and strong. and donic's blue contact (designed for the bluefire series) is so thick. if it's thinner and seeps into the sponge, I think this might actually cause more unevenness.

I am curious about your friend's knowledge about creating booster. One question comes to mind is is it possible to create a booster with permanent effects?

For tenergy just use butterfly free chack or butterfly free chack 2. Butterfly won't create a glue that their best selling product can't use.

I don't believe that it is possible. First, booster is made of oil plus addictives that are spread all over the sponge, then it get absorved and are lost by mechanical force and air exposition. For it to be permanent it is necessary that it do not get lost so it would be something like a polyurethane glue which would enter the porous of the sponge and get dried. In my opinion it would make que rubber hard like a steel, something complete different of booster. His "green glue" is something more lasting that adds speed and somehow softness as more layers are used (something over 10 thin layers). Other important thing is to consider the sponge thickness if you are going to apply more than 3 layers of glue, his best results where with 1.9~2.0 mm.
