View Full Version : Agrip Lost The Sticky
How can I get the sticky back?
I removed my Agrip a few months back and am now reinstallin it.
The flap over part is now not sticky. I remember the instruction paper had some advice about rejuvinatin the sticky, and may have even came with a tube of somethin to get the sticky back.
Please help. My flap is flappin'
Excuse the absence of "g" in some words. This laptop is havin trouble and have to push it real hard to et a G
alright, some one has to know. Their website has nothing on this. And when I called the number I was connected to an answering machine.
Not sure why this was moved to a less exposure area.

I put agrip on my glock a few months ago, just dug up the instructions all I could find is, If agrip begins to peel up on any edges rub down hard with fingernail or similar object. you may need to degrease with alcohol or dry the area. if problem persists (which it shouldn't) you may need to reapply agrip adheasive (I think a little sheet was included) I remember wondering when I purchase it if it can be removed and reapplied all the info states it will remove easily but never says anything about reapplying. I have read about rejuvinateing the nap on the grip that may be what you recall reading.
I recently installed an Agrip on my G19. I don't think you'll be able to reapply it once it's been completely removed. It came with a small patch of extra adhesive in case a mistake was made during installation in order to get it to grip, but that was it. As Wildwolf pointed out, the instruction manual only mentions what to do if a small corner starts to come undone and the rejuvenation is for the felt side of the grip only and it is done by rubbing it down with a brush.
I'm not sure how badly you want to re-install it, but it may be better to just buy a new one considering you could get one for about $20 shipped. I think they have a limited life anyway according to the brochure that came with it.
Yea I remember the little thing of extra adhesive but cant find it.
Everything stuck well except the flap that sticks back to itself.
Tried a hair dryer to help it but there is no sticky left at all. :crying:
Thanks for ya'lls replies. Will have to hunt down that adhesive.
Sorry you got the answering machine, but we get so many damned "spam" calls it's almost a total waste of time to "try" to answer the phone. We get literally flooded with calls everyday, all day long, from people trying to sell us this or that, trying to get into our computers, trying to spam the fax, or something similar of the sort. Sorry to say that the the telephone has become a disfunctional tool because of such low-lifes and so have ruined a very useful tool for everyone that has a legitimate use for it. We simply just don't "run" to the phone anymore, although, we do still try. If we do manage to get to it we always check the "caller id" first. If it says "out of the area" or "private name and number" or "toll free service", it is not likely we are going to pick it up. Even when it looks like a legitimate call it commonly turns out to be spam. I hate it! Spammers need to kiss my trash and get a real job!
Best thing to do if you get the machine is simply leave a message. We will try our best to get back to you as soon as possible. Hey, look at the bright side, we end up paying for the call! :supergrin:
As for the sticky stuff... we will send you some free of charge... all you have to do is ask. :supergrin:

AGrip is not meant to be removed, and then replaced with the same AGrip that was removed, although, it can and has been done. As someone once said; "An AGrip is a terrible thing to waste."
As for how long an AGrip will last... well... that really all depends on a gazzillion different things. They can even be washed while still on the gun. I have several guns that still have the same AGrip on from the very beginning of this business and invention of AGrip... something like 15 years! And they are still going strong!
Thanks everybody!
