Title: vacuum grip and matrix style grips
Post by: Red Ink Cricket on November 17, 2011, 02:01:37 PM
Does anybody have any experience of using the above together? i sold my gm applicator because i couldnt get on with it but i have a batch of matrix style grips and i want to apply them without stretching and deforming the patern. dont wanna buy another if its no good. if not any tips how to do it otherwise?

fattus had no problem fitting one for me the other day.
the only time there would be a problem would be if there is a hole in the grip.

they fit ok with a normal grip but all the design/grip is all at an angle. probably doesnt help ive got 2 halfs and a whole grip underneath already. causing the grip to stretch and deform.

ill give the vacuum a go. thanks
