advantage of a hammer edge is that you only have the awfull fibre stuff on the edge of the bat.
the front just pulls off easy.
your never gonna get the glue off with sanding by hand. power sander gets it off cos it heats it up but it gets propa sticky and clumpy best way is a bare stanley knife blade held up right and just scrape it all off.
takes time tho.
ive just done mine. it was a pain and i rushed it and it doesnt look half as good as ryans.
the stickers are ment to be that way on that bat i think
