Default Hair Spray to put on grips

Was told to use hairspray to put on grips, what do everyone use? I was also told to use spray paint.

Told you to use what, hair spray? If so did you use it, and did it work?

You can use hairspray. It works fine, it acutally worked better than the Scott Grip glue I used once.

as you already know my vote is for spray paint......if you use hair spray or grip glue your grips will be sliding all over the place.....just 3 quick shots of paint in each grip then put em on and leave them alone for about 15 minutes......

I have been using hairspray when installing new grips since early 80's and never had a problem.
