hockeypro8791 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 maybe well if you still want your graphics i suggest not to do this but taking sand paper and rub it up and down the stick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chhhockeynut14 1 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 I'm thinking for the future because the non grip apx is a matte finish. I really don't like the matte finish so I was hoping to be able to remove the grip on the grip version so it would feel like the clear version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travimo 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 Buy the non grip APX, and a can of clear and give it a couple of coats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
th6252 25 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 Why not buy clear in the first place?????because some configurations are only available in grip. for instance, i really like the bauer int 75 flex sticks but they're not available in clear, at least not retail.

chip1441 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2012 I don't have an APX, but on the TotalOne once there is a hole in the grip, you can slowly peel it off. I got the hole when I went to peel off the tape for my grip. Some of the grip material just stuck to the tape. Now if I wanted, I could slowly peel all of the grip off. Not that I want to...

Lefty718 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2012 It's for an SE16-I could easily, spray with a clear coat...Or try the sandpaper and water method. Trying to figure out from people's experiences what works better.Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
