Grip Tape Residue

[LeftyHawk]

In an attempt to re-use good grips I've started using a compressor to remove the old grip. My question is how do I get the residual tape in the grip out?

I haven't found the need to do that.  Is there so much that you feel the residual tape after you re-grip?

[LeftyHawk]

No, I don't feel it, just thought I'd ask

Thanks,

Chris

You could alway squirt some grip tape solvent into the grip and use a brush or some kind of “stick” to Scrape off the residue. I have used a long narrow Screwdriver in the past; no need to scrape hard the solvent helps separate the grip from the tape.

 I also use a long screw driver to scrape out the old tape.

I agree with the general sentiment that if you don't need to do it; don't do it.  But a small pipe brush and solvent should do the trick.
