Brilliantly detailed tutorial! This was my first time applying a grip tape and thanks to your help, I've done a really decent job. Thanks very much!

Can u puck with it at all when ur doing the linseed oil

[@samcarter9554]

Thanks thats really helpful

[@taeg_official]

You are welcome

[@cellO24]

Just a question, do you put on your grip and tape right after your done oiling it or do you have to wait for it to dry and then you can put the grip and tape on.

[@taeg_official]

Yes definitely wait until it’s completely dry. I’d recommend leaving it at least a day , preferably longer , as the final coat takes the longest to completely dry .

What does the linseed oil help with. Does it make it stronger

[@taeg_official]

Yes it keeps it from drying out and getting weaker. Also stops too much water from getting into it

[@fragz62]

Deckii I have a wicked light Hurley that can break easily will do you think this will make a difference

[@tottenhamman9726]

@@fragz62 yes it does, you should put linseed oil on all of your hurls.

Thank you :)

Can u go for a puck with it while ur doing the linseed oil

[@taeg_official]

Yeah, the shaft will be very sticky tho

[@conorthompson943]

Does it matter if its boiled linseed oil or raw?

[@taeg_official]

Boiled will absorb into the wood faster I believe, but both will have identical effects

[@KarenTookTheKids364]

Question: Is the grip and tape removed once a month to apply linseed?

[@taeg_official]

No , it would lose its sticky ness, You can apply it to the rest of the bare wood , and apply more to the Toe ( end of handle ) , the oil will flow through the wood and into the parts covered by the grip over time :)

[@tottenhamman9726]

1 good coat of linseed oil should do it.

[@conorroan8732]

How many times do you have to oil it ?

[@taeg_official]

Every day for a week , and then once a month for every month after that

[@thomaseoghan6266]

@@taeg_official how long does it take for the oil to dry

[@EdMurphy13]

why the tape higher up?

[@taeg_official]

It’s definitely not necessary. Some people do it , some don’t . I believe it’s for when it’s heavily raining. The tape is less slippery then the wood then

[@thomasshannon4980]

Helps with your eyeing too when putting the ball on the bas. Personally I feel like it strengthens the hurl abit. Sometimes when ur playing a match and it’s wet the sliotar can get heavier and you don’t get a good connection with the ball I find.
