About pasting rubber on blade
Equipment
Rajdeep Paul Asked 4 years ago
when I do pasting my rubbers on the blade for 2nd time or 3rd time or so on... at 2nd time, after pulling off the rubber from blade, I see a sticky layer has been created on both the rubber sponge and blade surface. I don't know why this happens to only me in our club. at that time that layer is very hard to remove, because it is too much sticky. I don't know why this happens, I do the pasting after completely drying the glue on the sponge surface and blade surface. as it is very hard to remove (too much sticky), I do the pasting over this. and after one month again, I do the pasting again. so, when I pulled off the rubber from the blade, I found the sticky layer has been increased, but not easily removable (sticky like before and also in more amount). so, I again do the pasting over that. and after one month again, when I do the pasting again, I pull off the rubber and found the same sticky layer with more amount than the last time. if I found it is removable due to more amount than previous, I do remove it from both the blade and rubber sponge with a cloth in spite of having pain in my palm and finger. and after removal also, there remains a thin sticky layer which remains unclean able. as a result, again I do the pasting over this comparatively thin sticky layer. as a result my blade surface remains sticky always and loses its durability. as well as this thing affects the rubber also. I don't know why this shit happens only to me, don't know, if I am the only one who face this problem or it happens to another players also. and also don't know how to get rid off this. I use very fine, dense, VOC free glue for pasting, use butterfly joo saehyuk wooden blade and tibhar mxp rubber at one side, which requires pasting in every month.
please tell me how to get rid off this problem.
sorry, I have tried to upload an image of the sticky layer in my blade & rubber sponge, but it shows "error 404" or something else like that. I don't even know whether you have got my problem or not. if you understand it, please help me...

Hi Rajdeep,
Some of the glues act that way in particular and there is a lot of build up on the blade. That type is really difficult to remove as it becomes very sticky and gooey.
I would ask the others which type of glue they are using and try to get that type.

Rajdeep,some glues leave a sticky material on the blade. I am not glue expert,but it happens to me as well.
I always need to manually rub the sticky remains down before I glue a new rubber.
Though I must admit that I change once per about 10-18 months according to my financial situation.
Regarding the error 404,that means "Resource unavailable".
How did you attempt to upload the image?

Alois Sir, my coach brings same glue for everyone in our club, but it is only me, who face this type of problem.
Hi Rajdeep,
I don't really think this is very important now with the new glues. It sounds like it is more trouble than it is worth for you as well. I would just leave it on.
Hi Rajdeep, with regards to adding an image to the comment, as DK mentioned, you need to link to a photo that is already on the Internet. You could use a site like https://imgur.com/upload to upload and then reference the uploaded file.
