Hey Mate, I've tried these on both oiled and un-oiled bats. Oiled ones had a 2-3 week gap between oiling and applying the scuff sheet

Yeah i have done similar things, still even try a light sand with like 320 or 400 grit paper and it worked better for me.

i bought a bulk load of nv scuff sheets, as they was cheap. non stuck, such schocking quality.

one i need to tape the middle and toe, and did this after applying said scuff sheet, its now all saggy inbetween.
buy cheap you buy twice!


i bought 10 helicopter ones of bulldog since, and 10 from b3 and havent had a probably with either, even on bats only oiled a few days earlier, all have stuck and stuck well.

I waited almost two weeks after oiling before applying the sheets.

I agree seems like they were stored in a very hot environment that have impacted/melted the glue.

I have also now bought the helicopter ones from bulldog. And those sheets are awesome. I mean really awesome.

Shamrock have promised to sort out the issue, these were not what I would call cheap sheets. I think just a bad batch. Thanks John for great service.

Yes they are shamrock ones. I'll try the cutting the edges off and using the tape on the edges or just bin them all.First one was really good this might be bad batch
mine also from shamrock and exactly faced same problem.

I bought a Gray Nicolls scuff sheet from IJC which arrived today. Having never applied one before and stumbling across this thread this morning I was pretty anxious about applying it but it went on a treat and was very easy to apply, it stuck instantly and even though I then stuck the edges down further with fibre tape, it probably wasn't required. Either way I'd use them again.

I do imagine that if they aren't stored in favourable conditions then the glue would perish. Also I had a ready meal a couple of weeks back from a well known retailer, one I have had hundreds of times before but yet this one kept me on the toilet with my head in the sink for four hours the next morning. Sometimes you just get a dodgy batch.
