Weird looking rubber after boosting

[DeanY]

I boosted Friendship Battle II (red top sheet) with Falco Tempo Long Booster and now it has uneven bumps on it (shown on the image). I also forgot to remove the rubber protector sheet before boosting it...

Is this suppose to happen? Is this rubber ruined?

Haifu black oil needed for chinese sponge materials stay undamadged. China national team only love haifu stuff. Falco comes from a Belgium guy obsessed with a boostermania.🤩🤪😜😪🤮🤓

is the sponge still wet?

It's ok, you just didn't flatten the booster layer well. I had this issue when boosted 729 Aurora Max. It was very curved even without booster and the booster layer just wasn't be able to be flat

This should not happen even with rubber protector still on. At least I leave the protective film on the rubber for the first booster layer and remove it for the second layer.
What sometimes happens is that the booster gets between topsheet and sponge and one gets some bumpy swelling of the topsheet but usually only at the edges. Topsheet takes a week or so to return to normal.

I think you used too much booster and didn't brush it evenly.

Oh, do you still play with Dragon F? How is it?

Boosting carries risk.

For a risk free happy life; choose ESN rubber. Factory boosted with top notch European QC.

Why risk yourself with nasty chemical when top notch Euro chemist can do it for you, with a fee of course.

Be Happy choose ESN your preferred Rubber of choice.

Booster expired?🤣🤣🤣

Not again yet They wait for the next layer... Unboosted these hard/mid-hard Dragon Fs were a bit too hard for my backhand and to hybrid-like for my FH.

@ESN: Thanks but no thanks. First the factory boosting vanishes and one can either dump the rubber or has to boost it and than a couple of hours later the topsheet doesn't grip the ball well enough anymore.
Hybrid K3 is well know for it's poor durability.
