aftermarket stick grip

Recommended Posts

I was using a Torspo 221 clear coat, then i started using a nike bauer one70 that had a grip coating. The nike broke and now i cant seem to get used to the clear coating on my torspo and new dolomite dd(they were out of grip in the prostock). is there any spray or something that i can use to get the stock grip coating feel?

Some people will roll a roll of tape sticky side out on a buttend or broken shaft and rub it on the stick for a tacky grip.

i use this stuff called plasti-coat. it is used for rubberizing handles on tools ar what not, i found it at the hardware store, 5.00 per can an you can probably do 10 sticks with 1 can. works great. an it also adds another coat of protection on your stick... it has been 6 months since i put it on my primary stick an it is still on there like the day i applied it...

Never came across anyone that's done this. I don't get out much. Do you know how long the tackiness lasts before you have to do it again?

Mine lasted quite a while. It's by far my favorite feeling grip but it leaves black marks on the shaft. But if you play a lot it's no different than the marks you would get off of pucks and random play.

Plasti-dip spray works fairly well too. Not tacky, more of a matte finish.

i had heard of ztedge but havent seen it at any shops and the website doesnt seem to be there anymore so i figured it was gone. i dont really care for the whole candycane tape, and what id really like is a soft bauer stickum type grip. I'll have to stop down at the hardware store and give a plastic dip type spray a shot. its too bad noone sells the same grips manufacturers actually use for this purpose. youd think custom grip coatings would be pretty popular.

Use white tape, not black.

What I like is you can apply the tackiness heavier up high on the stick where you hold it while stickhandling....and just put a bit of grip lower on the shaft where your lower hand slides when shooting.

i tried the plasti-coat once and it didn't stay on very well. after one game it was coming off were i gripped most and after a few games a lot had come off. perhaps i should have cleaned the shaft with alcohol or something before applying it? anyways, the plasticoat is not going to protect your stick.
