If you don't have the tools at home, try this. Works surprisingly well.

I just wonder how that grip would come off using rubber cement vs two sided tape? Seems like it would be a lot harder.

If you're just cutting it off, who cares, right?

It comes off really easily. The rubber cement just peels off with the grip often or it can be peeled off the shaft if it didn't stay with the grip. Trying to remember back who, but at least one of the OEMs used some sort of cement to do all their grips from the factory. May have been Cleveland? This was years ago now.

There was a shop in my area that used rubber cement to for gripping. When I first started to learn, they showed me.

Wow. What a tedious mess. I could have re-gripped 8 irons in the time to watch this video using simple 2-sided adhesive tape and paint thinner solvent. I guess you could go through this messy, time-consuming process if you didn't have either.

I'm vouching for you. I remember that too. … and I think it was Cleveland.

I know this topic comes up here from time to time, and I think I mentioned something about this is a previous posting but here is a video showing how to build a portable grip station perfect for small spaces.
