Big Norm -

One of the keys in making any adhesive work with old grips is removing the surface oil from the two glue surfaces. I use a Q-Tip and acetone to clean the glue surfaces before applying the glue.

I have used the jelled "Super Glue" effectively, but prefer a quick-set epoxy; as you have more time to get the two pieces perfectly mated before the glue begins to harden.

Good luck,
Luke
