So this is a bit strange. I have a 6-7 month old battle II national blue sponge on my FH and a 3.5 months old battle II national orange sponge on my BH...until last week both rubbers were quite tacky and it was possible to lift a clean ball up in the air for 3-4 seconds. But just last week, in the span of a day or two - both the rubbers became barely tacky (like barely able to lift the ball for half a second). I have tried cleaning the rubber really well with water and also a butterfly rubber cleaner. But I don't see any noticeable improvements. Even the protective sheets are sticking quite weak.
The ball now slips quite often because of this and I feel less confident during gameplay. Both rubbers were boosted with two thin layers of Seamoon booster about a month back.
Does any one have any idea what could be the reason behind this sudden change ?
For complete info - I play in Prague where the humidity has been a little high recently but nothing crazy.
