Scotty you narc!

Its not my product, a friend from Urban Advantage is the rep for them.
Originally made for construction tools they realized its use on the "tactical" side so they redid the composition so it would last in hotter climates, resist chemicals etc..
They just started pushing this stuff, not sure how available it is but I have a box..

You need a heat gun, a plastic cutting board, water, texture material and the Rat grip:
1. Cut the amount of material needed
2. Place it on a wet cutting board and heat the facing side till "glossy"
3. Wet hands (always have wet hands when handling the hot material), without touching the "glossy" side place it where you want it, i.e. front strap of pistol, knife handle,etc...
4. Heat and mold into the spot you want it and make it a "blank" shape.
5. Heat material, wet hands, grab gun grip to get your finger grooves set, reheat, place wet texturing cloth over grip, grab again.
6. Make it look pretty with heat, fingers and knife if needed.

Thats about it for working with this stuff, takes minimul practice to get good at it.

Thats a fast generic talk through. this stuff can be used for anything. At CSAT they made a beaver tail for a Glock that worked very well from what I was told
