I remember using hair spray in the 70's to install grips on my BMX bicycle! Worked great; when wet it made the grips slide on and it dries quick and turns into glue.
The Hair spray trick didn't work for me... After 3-days of not disturbing it... it had not set-up. It may have been the wrong brand or something... I had to remove the grip re-clean it & I used the glue that came with the grips... Kuryakyn "Black widow" adhesive... Seems to be holding well.
Hobbit, What I used was a brand called "Bed Head". My daughter said it was a hard to hold formula, so I thought that should work... Oh well, I still appreciate ALL the other Great tips on this site, That's the first one that didn't work for me... No problem
