Hi HAris,

I haven't tried this but I wouldn't play around with rubbers. If anyone has tried this let us know.

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.

I've tried my friend's bat (since I don't have my own yet), He used some oil base liquid which in fact did give better spin and awesome loops which i really had a problem to generate, but it started to kinda seem to decline in performance in about an hour making it worse than what it was before applying the liquid,as for rubber life... I think you should stick with Alois' advice or get a better rubber which will suit you
