ABSTRACT:
A process for making a moldable article for individualizing the operative surfaces of implements such as the hand grip of tennis racquets or hand tools. The moldable article is a sheet of polymeric material, including a polyurethane or thermoplastic-rubber copolymer component blended with volatile solvents and fillers to form a moldable mass that after receiving an individual's hand impression, for example, cures by solvent evaporation at ambient temperatures to a solid non-tacky hand grip. The moldable article is made by mixing the components together and forming a sheet which is sandwiched between semipermeable films that permit partial evaporation of the solvents. The sheet is then packaged between non-permeable films which prevent further evaporation until impressed by the consumer and exposed to air drying.
