Can anybody recommend any rubber cleaners that seem to add a little bit of tack? I know that there are tons that seem to clean really well but nothing that adds a little bit of tack like the old Spinmax formula. From searching through the forum, it looks like the Spinmax Aqueous does an okay job of that. Possibly the Revolution Number 3 Cleaner/Rejuvinator and possibly the Reach Rubber cleaner.

I already know that it's not possible to turn a euro rubber to have the level of tack that H3Neo does but it would be nice to just add a little bit of tack.

Any thoughts or ideas?

There are two types of Reach Rubber cleaners (for tacky and non-tacky rubbers). I have used the tacky one on Hurricanes 3s and it worked pretty well.

Yeah! I've heard that the new Spinmax still works pretty good. Has anybody tried the Revolution Number 3 Cleaner/Rejuvinator? Does it add a small amount of tack like Spinmax does? What about normal rubber roller cleaners? Can anyone confirm if they add tack?

The original Spinmax (also called 'Spinmax Red') is actually still made, but the trouble is that it's highly flammable, so it's very expensive to ship. So unless a local dealer is willing to buy it in in bulk, it's not usually viable to ship it.

In my experience, the new spinmax will add a small amount of tack, but only on the right kind of rubbers. It needs to be the type that is very grippy/nearly tacky already. Then, with consistent use of spinmax + a plastic protector sheet, you should notice a small difference.

Spinmax Aqeous adds a mild tack to Tenergy,just enough to pick up the ball a couple of inches before it drops

From what I remember all the Joola dealers had Spinmax- red and green. I simply thought it was discontinued like all the VOC cleaners
