Colour Bleed on Multiple Coloured Grips and Toe Guards
Due to the manufacturing process, bleed on colour joins is possible and some is to be expected (grips undergo vulcanisation, a heating process that alters the state of the rubber where some bleeding on colour joins is unavoidable). The degree of bleed depends on the texture of the grip with players matrix lite and dynamite quite susceptible, scale, octopus and other highly textured less so. Colour bleed is unavoidable and not considered a fault in the product.
Fitting of Cricket Bat Grips
If not fitted directly onto the whipping twine of the handle, the undergrip must be a minimal textured grip, either chevron lite or diamond texture only. Fitting of grips onto other textures should not be undertaken.
