I'm guessing the previous owner was fond of imbedding his hooks in the cork as it has sustained a lot of chipping. No big deal as it makes a very "Grippy" grip. However the cork rings have started to separate from each other which is worrisome. All-in-all a good buy for $5.
I'm seeking advise on the best way to restore a cork grip short of replacing the whole grip. Some kind of adhesive that I can coat it with that would still leave me with a tacky grip. In other words something quick and easy!
