Removing Glue
« on: March 12, 2009, 07:07:44 PM »

Hi Guys,
 Just removed a scuff sheet of my bat and was wondering how I can remove the glue as I do not have any white spirit ?

Lighter fluid, which is availble from any half decent cornershop/off license should do the trick.

don't use a block, get some sandpaper.
or just buy some white spirit/turps from your local hardware shop, less than a quid usually

try using a blunt knife, just scrape it carefully down the bat with the grain. bit gritty but does the job nicely
