The TOVI DiamondCoat LiquidTape is a game-changing liquid tape application for your hockey stick blade! Tired of changing out wet and cutup traditional stick tape before every game? Instead, use TOVI's LiquidTape, a hydrophobic and fast-drying brush on liquid that gives your blade surface a tacky feel which helps grip the puck for better control, spin, and accuracy.
Another added benefit of using TOVI's DiamondCoat LiquidTape is that you'll experience a premium puck feel since there is no standard hockey tape between the puck and the blade. Application is incredibly easy and can last up to 20 games or practices, saving you time and energy of retaping your stick. Each package comes with instructions and two bottles of LiquidTape. One bottle can cover the front and back of one hockey blade.
Compatible with all hockey blades. If looking to enhance the grip on a TOVI VIII stick use the Without Grit liquid tape since textured is built into the blade. For all other composite blades use the With Grit liquid tape for improved control!

| TOVI DIAMONDCOAT LIQUIDTAPE APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS | |
|---|---|
| The following instructions were provided by the manufacturer. | |
| Step 1 | Prep the blade by removing any debris and ensuring the blade's surface is completely dry. If using a non-TOVI stick, you will need to pre-scuff the surface with a green scouring pad (normally found on the back of a sponge). |
| Step 2 | Prep the adhesive by vigorously shaking the bottle for 20 seconds. Open the bottle and fully coat the applicator brush. |
| Step 3 | Apply the DiamondCoat LiquidTape across the grain of the blade (heel to toe). Complete 1/4 of the blade at a time and then re-coat the applicator. Use the brush like a hockey stick across the surface of the blade. Do not push the bristles through the holes if applying to a TOVI stick. |
| Step 4 | Apply the applicator until the desired sections of your blade are covered. The liquid will turn from blue to clear when dry. Do not use the blade until the blue changes to clear. |
