Hi I'm a normal table tennis player and i have trouble taking the old glue of my rubbers.I use hexer and xiom omega 4 asia for the rubber and peter korbal and blade.

when i was peelling the old glue off my xiom, I accidently peeled some of the sponge as well...

I use free chack butterfly glue and I would like to know how to peel the old glue off without ripping the sponge as well. I saw one of your videos how to peel old glue, but mine come off a little by a little and it at least takes me 1 hour to peel all the glue for 1 rubber.

can you help me?

Hi Chris,

It does take a long time to get the glue off.  It is best to take this time and do it slowly.

I use the tips of fingers... that wear out quite quickly...
