Working on a G3 with slack knuckle covers. I'm bolstering with yarn and positioning it on the backside since they still are round, just needs to have the cover snugged-up a bit. Has anyone treated this with wetting the front and rear areas to shrink? I figure the PVC-E glue will shrink it a bit to snug them that last little it. I had one job where I couldn't find a way to reduce the friction a few more grams. After much head scratching I discovered the knuckle covers loose and sliding. I bolstered the backside and the friction dropped 2 to 4 grams. Not that this G3 has friction problem but every little thing counts. -- Regards, Jon Page
