Gluing to reuse rubber
Equipment
Peter Nielsen Asked 9 years ago
Hello again
What's the trick to glueing rubber so that it is easily removed to be used on other blades? A fine coat? It seems difficult to remove the rubber damage free. Cheers,-peter

Hi Peter,
If you use the water based glue it should come off relatively easily. Work your way around the bat peeling it off slowly.

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.

It also depends on the sponge a lot. Hard sponges are difficult to damage, while soft ones are easy. Glue really gets into soft porous sponge and makes it nearly impossible to remove the glue layer without tearing the sponge.

Thanks for your thoughts. Seems logical as I only play with softer versions. That's the price I may have to pay. Cheers peter
