Pure grip attachment

[oncewasagolfer]

I broke my air tool attachment a few weeks ago and have been having trouble trying to blow grips on and off with the little bit remaining. Does anyone have a spare they would be will to sell? thanks.

Can you put a pic of your gun up, I might have one to fit

What do you put over the grip to stop it blowing out?

[Steve]

PVC pipe

I use a length of lay flat hose. I also find that the stubborn grips sometimes come off a lot easier if you roll them up as far as you can, roll them back down, then blow them off.

I have got a spare new Pure gun; $20 pp.

The Pure gun is my main grip tool, but I also have a couple of difference versions of these, for when the Pure fitting gets in the way e.g. some putter grips. Or I need some more power (the shield is removable, and there are a few different versions of the needle in the kit);

I also have a couple of lengths of 40mm pvc tube, plus an aluminum tube that came with one of the guns above.

The cardboard centre from a roll of Gladwrap.

I use a length of lay flat hose. I also find that the stubborn grips sometimes come off a lot easier if you roll them up as far as you can, roll them back down, then blow them off. I roll the neck of the grip back as far as possible and also twist the grip when applying air.

How much for one of the needle attachments mate?

[oncewasagolfer]

The cardboard centre from a roll of Gladwrap.

Since breaking the attachment I have been using the above.

[Steve]

Free, send me your address, I'll post one to you tomoz. Any local tool shop should stock them

[oncewasagolfer]

Thanks Steve pm on its way.

I roll the neck of the grip back as far as possible and also twist the grip when applying air.Same here, twisting definitely helps (I find the flat hose also makes it easier to twist).

I know some like to use the petrol injection method, but I find one of these and some Metho is much cleaner to use and more versatile at loosening glued grips;

One of those sure would be handy. I sometimes use a bit a kero with the air to move stubborn grips.

Interested to know what you mean by 'flat hose', do you mean poly pipe or something else?

Not sure how to post links on my iPhone, but here goes.

So you work that up the grip similar to the tool Daves linked?

[Timbo]

No, I just slip it over the grip to prevent blowouts - same as the PVC pipe. Being flexible, it just enables you to grab hold of the grip and twist it as you apply the air and still prevent blowouts.
