Grip Tips Ep. 29: How to Skin a 4x4 Frame

Notes for his video:

Once a frame gets too gunked up with Snot Tape remove the gaffer tape and reapply fresh gaff tape to the 1in flat bar of the frame. To do this:

  • Take 2" white Gaffer Tape and tear it Horizontally to create two 1" Strips.
  • Apply the 1" strips to sides of the frame.

Using tape creates a layer so that the gunk from the Snot Tape won't be left after multiple applications of gel.

  • Apply the Snot Tape to the Gaff Tape.
  • Now place the Gel on top of the Snot Tape.

Do not put 2" Gaff tape around the entire frame.
