How to apply grip tape solvent?
The best way to apply grip tape solvent is to add it to the inside of the grip first. Then, swish it around so it covers the inside completely (the guys in the videos I’ve linked to above both do this, so don’t miss it), then drizzle the solvent out of the grip over the grip tape. This both applies solvent to the grip and grip tape, and actually reduces the amount of solvent you use. And prevents the dreaded half-stick grip which almost always means you have to cut it off and start again with a new grip.

Depending on what your preference is, you may want one or several layers of tape under your grips, either on the whole grip or the upper or lower areas. For me, even though I’m using midsized Tour Velvet Plus 4s, I still want two layers of tape under the whole grip.

No need for the posts about "why would you save the grip, go buy new ones, etc." These are New Decades with only a few rounds on them.

The tape stuck more to the grip than the shaft? Strange. Anyways, solvent should get it off I suppose. Perhaps Goo-Be-Gone or something like that, as long as it doesn't damage the grip itself.

If the tape sticks to the inside cavity of the grip, it would perhaps be hard to blow it out. You can perhaps scrape it out with a long thing with a hook on it.
