ABSTRACT:
The invention described herein pertains generally to an applicator for use in translating a grip-enhancing substance onto a piece of equipment. The applicator is essentially tubular in nature and has a longitudinal slit along the length of the applicator thereby permitting a piece of equipment to be inserted thereto. The applicator has an absorbent inner component which is adhesively secured to the foamed exterior component, the inner layer having the grip-enhancing substance applied thereto. Through the application of a force, typically a squeezing action, onto the exterior of the applicator, a controllable amount of the grip-enhancing substance is transtarred from the inner component to the inserted piece of equipment. In one embodiment, the grip-enhancing substance is a replacement for pine tar, and is a synthetic polymer blend, the degree of tack of the product being both a function of the composition of the polymer(s) used in the composition, and when the composition is a mixture of two or more polymers, by the ratio of the two components.
