Repairing an old paddle

Frank Lucas Asked 7 years ago

I was gifted an old racket a while back and now the rubber is peeling away from the blade.  What's the best way to fix this?

Hi Frank,

The best thing is to move the rubber completely, peeling it back slowly.  Then reapply the rubber suing an approved table tennis water based glue.

If you try to put a little glue under the area that is coming up it may not leave a flat surface.
