Step One: Design Your Grips

Create a visual roadmap & make your measurements exact.

Step Two: Measure Twice & Cut Once

Use the roadmap to precisely measure & mark the EVA before cutting.

Step Three: Make Your Cuts

Carefully use a cork jig saw to apply pressure as the grip spins & cut it cleanly.

Step Four: Lay Out Your Pieces

Line up your pieces & make sure you are happy with your cuts.

Step Five: Time to Glue

Apply 2 thin layers of contact cement to one side & wait 5 minutes in between layers.

Step Six: Keep on Gluing

Repeat step 5 on the opposite sides but leave the grip’s outside edges unglued.

Step Seven: Build Your Grip

Align your first two pieces & stick them together.

Note: Contact cement’s bond is immediate & permanent.

Step Eight: Prepare Your Mandrel

Use a dry towel to apply a small amount of mandrel wax over the mandrel.

Note: Wax keeps EVA from sticking to the mandrel.

Step Nine: Slide Grip on the Mandrel

Size the mandrel per your grip’s inner diameter & leave room for the RBS Pro & Support.

Step Ten: Sand & Turn Your Grip

Use sanding screen to shape the grip & finish it with fine grit sand paper to remove blemishes.
