Designed as an accessory for a real gaming fanatic, the Razer Mouse Grip is made from polyurethane. The mouse tape will remain in place during intense gaming. Start by applying the grip tape to the deck, then screw in your trucks, and finally add the wheels and bearings. Method 1: A toothbrush, some water and bunch of paper towels Using the toothbrush, scrub on the spot you poured the water.
Scrub firmly in small circles. Lightly dab with the paper towel so it can absorb the dirty water. Hardware eventually breaks and you might not notice until you look down and see a bolt missing.
Now that you have the perfect cut for your deck take off the back of the paper. Stick the grip tape to your skateboard, where it should be placed straight. Flatten the grip tape using your one hand while your other hand will slowly pull the back of the cover, which covers the bottom part of the grip tape.
Make sure to flatten the tape, especially in the edges. It is important to do this step gradually to make sure that grip tape is evenly stuck in every area.
Rub the edges as well as all the angles using a screwdriver or any other hard metal. A single mistake might lead to a bigger one, so better to do it with accuracy. Always remember that in this process, a regular knife is not a good choice. Make sure that there are no choppy parts as you cut the grip tape. When done cutting, get the screwdriver and rub the edges more. Keep trimming on areas that need finishing. As much as skateboarding gives you freedom, there are also many grip tapes ideas you can choose.
Any of them might suit your taste so, check it out. This style is easy to do but good to see as well. In this style, what you need to is apply the grip tape to the whole part of your skateboard. You can add one small hard piece for easy identification between the nose and the tail. You can also spray a bit if a small solid piece is not your preference.
If you are too rough or hasty, the tape may rip and tear, making the job harder. Clean your skateboard completely. Rid the deck of dust, dirt, rocks—anything that could ruin the tape's adhesive. You'll need it to be as clean as possible, so that your new griptape sticks to your skateboard longer.
Consider taking your board to a skate shop. Many skate shops will put griptape onto your board for you, although it may be cheaper to do it yourself. At the very least, consider visiting a skate shop and asking for help if you are still unsure about the process.
Method 2. Center the griptape over your skateboard deck. Start by lining up the tape with the board so that you know the correct length and won't have it stuck on crooked.
It's difficult to correct mistakes once it sticks. Make sure the grip surface is longer and wider than your deck—you will cut the excess tape away when you are done. If you have a design on your grip, arrange where you want it to be.
Some people don't like the "classic" grip, and they go for different ways of gripping. For example: you can cut your grip in half before attaching it so that you have a line of grip-less space across your board, or you can draw a "silhouette"and cut it out so that you have a icon on your board.
Just center the drawing where you want it to be e. You'll probably have a part of your deck with no grip, but you'll also have a big extra piece of grip hanging off the other side. Cut this piece out and use it to fill the "missing grip area". Peel back a few inches of the paper guard and place it on one end of the board. Smooth out any small bubbles by pressing and pushing in the direction that you are lining the tape. If there are large bubbles that could eventually create a crease, you will want to pull back on the grip tape extremely carefully to remove these.
Make sure that the adhesive doesn't stick to anything else. Use two hands! This is a slow and patient process, and you don't want to rip the tape. Carefully smooth the entire grip onto the deck. Start slowly from one end of board and move your way across, pushing down on the tape so that you remove any air bubbles. Some brands already have small holes in their griptape to reduce the risk of air bubbles, but you should probably flatten the tape just to be safe.
Flatten the griptape against the edges of the board. You can always pull the grip tape up and try again. Try not to do this more than once or twice, or else the grip tape may lose its sticky backing.
Make sure that the grip is in line with the board. Make sure that the griptape covers the entire surface, unless you are leaving exposed wood in some areas for stylistic reasons. Some of the griptape may extend past the edges of the deck, but do not worry—you will trim this excess away with a knife or razor. Method 3. Scrape the sides. You'll notice that you have "extra" grip on the edges of the deck.
Grab a screwdriver, a metal file, or another blunt object, and scrape it around the sides of the board until the griptape develops a white edge. This is a way of sealing the edges of your griptape. If you do this correctly, you'll have a white outline of your deck on your grip—this outline marks out the area where you should cut away the excess grip tape on the side of your skateboard. Make sure to use long strokes instead of short, aggressive ones—otherwise, you might tear up the sides.
Also be careful not to file off the polish on the edge of your board. Use a knife or a box cutter to trim off any excess tape. Most boards have curved edges from sanding, so you want to trim the tape past the curve along the edge. Make long and steady cut motions for the best result. Remember to hold the blade in a slight angle towards the edge of the skateboard so you don't get a small line of grip sticking out. Use the outline of your grip for reference: you need to cut along the sides of the deck, and around the nose and tail of the board.
Make sure to keep all fingers out of the way at all times, as the razor blade can easily slip from the material. Use two hands to make it easier. You do not want it to accidentally dig into the deck of your board!
Flatten out air bubbles. Once the board is completely taped, inspect it for small air bubbles. Use a knife or a razor blade to make small incisions into the grip tape; this should release any bulging air bubbles. Smooth over the incision so that the grip tape sticks smoothly to the deck.
Poke holes to screw the trucks on.
