If you want to fully cover the metal base then you need to cut around the part where the bars attach to the base
Go to a scooter shop or maybe bye a skateboard grip tape stick on the scooter and spray paint.

Well what to do is pick a spot of the grip tape and start pilling. If the tape doesn't come off or when your done and still has sticky spots, use goo gone.
duck tape lol
nun ya
To put grip tape on a board you must first take the tape off of the plastic/wrapper. Then you put it on your board try not to get any air bumps. Then cut off the extra tape on the sides with a knife or maybe scissors. take some of the extra grip tape and file down the edges. Then take your screws for the trucks and push them through the holes. After that just attach the trucks, wheels, bearings, risers, and hardware and you're good to thrash.
Grip Tape was created in 1992.
Yes, just make sure once you put it on you wet it with plenty of solvent, inside the grip and on the grip tape.
Clear grip tape is REALLY good if the top of your deck has graphics on it.. or .. What I've done on a couple of decks I've put together- put stickers on the top of the deck and lay over it with clear grip tape.. the effect is cool with the stickers showing through the tape and the decals stay somewhat protected too.. The down side of clear grip is that if it gets street crud all on it - it is a pain to clean..
You can cut grip tape with fine sharp scissors.
im no pro but i suggest you try taking off the old grip take before putting the new on. taking the old off wash the wood a bit, let it dry then put your new tape on ! :D
its easier to wear out your grip tape first slide your grip tape along a wall and it should Peel then get a hairdryer and heat up the peeling grip tape to release the glue then with a sharp knife carefully slide the knife under the grip tape while pressing a hair dying over it
