**ltj999** · 10-19-2006 07:03 PM

so i just pulled up the grip from my ew slider, and i think it pulled off part of the top layer of the board, becasue it feels like a different clear coat from the bottem, and it took up part of the ew graphic on the top of the board...plus parts of the top feel like the bottem, but most of it isnt as smooth..umm idunno what to do, im thinking im just gunna re-grip it with the graphic i was thinking of and forgetting bout it, not totaly sure what to do..

I wouldn't worry about it.

you gotta look at it this way. There's no going back so no use in worrying about it. If thats the worse thing that happens to you in a long while, then consider yourself one lucky dude. It doesnt sound like a big deal anyway. Don't fret. Relax

You probably just pulled off a very thin top layer os varnish, just enough to make it feel dull. Dont sweat it.

well i did it, my first custom grip job, looks sick ill post pics later tonight

just out of curiosity, what procedure did you use for removing the griptape? Did you just get it up enough to start peeling it or did you try and use a goo-remover-type chemical?

i heated a little bit in the beginning and used a razor to peel up enough i could grab, once i had enough up to grab i just ripped the rest up

You killed my griptape. That grip was made from orphans' tears, man.

Center-set.
