You can get heat shrink with glue on the inside, I use it on the ends of my float ropes, good stuff

I haven't seen the glue version before, that would be much easier to keep it place as it shrinks. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for checking out the video. Hope it helped you.
Will a standard hair dryer work instead? Where did you get the grip kit?

The grip kit was an actual Neritic branded kit. The heat shrink you can buy from Amazon and just get some simple dyneema or thin polypropylene rope. You can try a hairdryer but you would do this at your own risk. You would have to hold the hairdryer very close to activate the heat shrink, the problem with holding it that close is there is a risk or burning the heat shrink.
Have you ever had any problems with the grip slipping once wet? Or does it stay in place?

The only grip that I have had loosen up was on my lobster snare because the heatshrink was too big for the shaft. My polespears that have the heatshrink installed have not moved an inch. As long as you get the correct diameter heatshrink it will not move. If you already have the heatshrink and it's a little big, get thicker rope and it will be secure.

The heat shrink was part of a grip kit. I can look back through my order history and check.
can you use a blow dryer?

If the hair dryer could get hot enough to activate the heat shrink, but if you leave the hair dryer to long in one spot you risk burning the heat shrink. The heat gun gets extremely hot and you can hold it far enough away from the heat shrink so you don't burn it. If you do not want to purchase the heat gun, try the blow dryer on a small area so you don't ruin your project. Be careful and try this at your own risk.
