I peeled off the rubber to reglue it onto the blade but it's not as smooth as the 1st time the seller assembled for me. Is it because of the aplication of the glue
or the actual process of sticking it back on??? Anyone have any advice? Or is there no way to get rid of the wrinkle marks on the rubber. I use Fair Chack light.I usually re-glue 1 time for a day
Will it harm my rubber and blade ?
How does it effect to them?
Thank You so much

Have you sealed your blade? If not, do so. A very thin layed of wood laquere will do the job for you. Prevents the blade from leaving splinters.
About the rubber, it sounds like a case of glue build-up. You could peel it of if it's much or ignore and reglue on top of the build-up. The process of reglueing will shorten the life span of your rubber's, thats for sure. According to me, it's still worth it since the rubbers performance increase when they are freshly glued. ------------- The holy grail |

Yes. And if you're a beginner you don't need to be re-glueing. Stay away from rubber cement, also. Which company assembled your racket? -------------

| Bryce FX certainly benefits a lot from gluing. I actually thought the rubber had more control with glue due to the increased spin. If you decide not to speed glue, regular rubber cement works just as good as the expensive non-speed tt glues to stick the rubber on the blade. |

Would you mind enlightening me on the following please as i use the non-speed tt glues alot, . i experiment alot by swapping around all my rubbers and blades to find nice feel / combinations, i don't like the smell of these glues and they damage the lining of your lungs and make you light headed, so not good for the brain cells, i believe!
What is it called / where do you get it from, how expensive is it? Is it easy to re - glue with cement?, is it messy or cleaner to use?, what about fumes? Does it last longer per tin etc........... ------------- Blade 729 Carbon FH TG2 BH BFY Super Anti |

| mozzy, the only benefit to regular rubber cement vs. non-speed tt glue is the cost. The tt glues are just rubber cement thinned out a bit, so the regular stuff works just as well for much cheaper, which is nice if you experiment with different rubbers a lot. The rubber cement is still messy and smelly, though. |
