Hi guys, ive just ordered new rubbers for my bat for the first time. is it easy to cut to fit the blade? and which glue do you recommend? also would 2.2mm be much different to use than 2.0mm rubber? thanks a lot for your help. i loved the dvds.

Hi Andrew,

The rubber is fairly easy to cut as long as you have something really sharp to cut it with.  i find a scalpel is easiest for me.  Others use scissors.

Glue the rubber onto the bat first and then cut around the blade.

As far as glues are concerned, any of the major table tennis brand glues are good.  You are best to use a table tennis glue though and not something from a hardware store.
