while doing a brake job on my wifey's Murano, I grabed an old grip and cleaned it w some brake cleaner
WOW...it went from a dingy white to a BRIGHT WHITE again!
the grip was a Tacki Mac Itomic and it was all covered in black from rubbing against other clubs in the bag
after i sprayed it down, it was like new again

also tested it on my Titleist 735.cm's and it transformed the grips to brand new again

I wash my grips every 5 rounds and replace them every 25 or so
so i would reccomend this maybe once or twice tops in the lifetime of the grip

just spray it on, wipe clean w a smooth, dry shop towel (the blue ones I used) and VOILA!
after it dries (and quickly as brake cleaner is basically alcohol) it was as Tacki as new!

there you go!

i searched for itomics and found like every post made by you enis....
that is no offense to be taken, i just love researching these type things. i wish we had a golfsmith near me with these in stock. i want to try those white itomics out. i just regripped all my MX-200s with black/white crosslines (my personal grip of 6 years). i travel a lot for work and the two golfsmith i see on a regular basis (Memphis and Atl) dont cary the itomics in store.


i did order a white itomic wrap from Tacki mac and put it on my nike pro combo 5 iron and like it ok. not great.

i am glad to hear you found a way to clean these. i have a lamkin performace plus 3gen on my driver and its sort of off white anyway, but i need a good way to clean these. i love the look of white grips on irons, and want to try the reduced taper of the itomics. i need to get 1 to try first.

what specific brake cleaner did you try? thanks for the advice.

i will this upcoming summer i think. i literally had the crosslines put on Thurs.(i do not have a vice and pay to have clubs regripped).

living in the south, especially this past summer, any grip you chose would be tested to the max on "tac" ill buy a set for next summer and try them out when i would actually need them most. the rest of this season and early on next year, i think my crosslines will be just fine, but will def try them next season. and yes you should be payed. :)

    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
