If you don't you run the risk of the tape drying too fast and not getting the grip on properly. I want to share a little something I learned about putting these grips on it's essential that you use a little dish soap on the sticky portion that is on the handle portion of the stick and run some through the grip before you put it on. I just ordered this style and I am not dissappointed.

Comfortable and good grip.Ĭomments: I have commented on how good these grips are before. It will dry faster.Ĭomments: This is an awesome product, easy to apply works and feels great!Ĭomments: This grip is great. This product probably extends the life of your gloves.Ĭomments: No need for soap, just run the hot water from the tap onto the glue, rub the glue around with your fingers and put the grip on. This is the winner.Ĭomments: The grip is great and consistent, but just as importantly they seem to be easier on the palm of your glove.

For the price and how much better it looks then tape, no peeling ends to deal with or lack of stickyness that tape does in a short time. Just ordered another, will no longer be using tape. Notice some people in reviews finding easier ways so with that said and through the little struggle that I went through and or maybe you will it is totally worth. A little tricky and stubborn to installing following instructions. Pour a small amount of mineral spirits or paint thinner over the solvent tape to activate the adhesive.Ĭomments: very recommend this to everyone.Ĭomments: Absolutely worth the money and time to put on. Slide your Tacki Mac Grip over the butt end and allow 20 minutes for the tape to set up before use. Do not use a grease-fighting soap like Dawn as this will ruin the glue on the tape. Pour the hot water mixture over the tape and rub your index finger over it to activate the adhesive. Mix 2-3 drops of mild liquid soap with hot water in a container. Fold overhanging end down to lay flat on the stick's butt end. Apply tape to the stick's butt end, overhanging the end of the stick by 1/4'.

Starting with a clean stick end and removing any previous tape, remove the backing from both sides of the double-sided tape that is included.

Please read the packaging instructions to see which method you need to use for installation. Tacki Mac Grips may either come with water-activated or solvent-activated tape.
