To fit the cork grip I use a piece of an old rod, cut sandpaper into narrow strips spray some adhesive on the back and wind it around the rod. Spiral it on with gaps to collect the cork dust. I start with 80 grit then finish the fit with 180 grit.
If you have a lot of cork to remove use a cordless drill to speed the job up.

I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here!
