The first grip I flocked, a few years ago, has all but lost its fuzz, it is a bald flocking grip. I have learned that I did not use the right fuzz or seal the grip properly a double whammie. Despite this id did take a few years to fish the fuzz ofof it.
I have since done ok and all of the other grips I have done have been fine.
My question is can I re flock this bald one over the old glue? There is a small amount of fuzz I have sanded off other that that I have not done anything to the grip.
Cheers Ron

Sand it back down to the original base material, clean up, then reapply the adhesive and flock it to your heart's content.

If the old stuff is smooth and not peeling or lifting, you may be able to apply the correct flock over the top of what you have now. Just remember that it won't adhere any better than what's on there now, as that is your base. If the old stuff lifts or peels, it will lift the new stuff with it. So make sure its solid and in good shape.

Thanks for the help. The "glue" is good and stuck on, it was the fuzz that came off.
Cheers Ron.
