Ink
The ink will adhere to all types of strings. However, due to the impermeability of polyester strings, the ink does not get enough “bite” on this type of string and can wear off sooner than on the other types of strings.
The ink is manufactured for us specifically for application to tennis strings. It is fast drying and very durable.
Each bottle contains a mohair, felt-tip applicator that is rubbed on the strings to apply the ink.
Each one ounce bottle contains enough ink for between six and eight applications. However, once opened, the ink on the applicator can dry up limiting the shelf life of the bottle.
Shipping
Generally, due to the shipping restrictions of the ink, we ship our products via the United States Postal Service using the First Class ground method. Shipment usually arrives within 3-7 days depending on your location. If you are in a rush for an order, please let us know and we can determine if shipping via Fedex Ground or UPS Ground might be faster.
- Stencils: Stencils by themselves can be shipped throughout the world at economical rates.
- Ink (Retail): It is not economically feasible to ship small quantities of ink internationally.
- Ink (Wholesale): At bulk levels, we ship our inks internationally via Fedex International Economy and Priority.
Stencils
The stencils are manufactured from a high-quality, plastic material specifically made for stencils.
No, it is not difficult at all. We include step by step instructions with every order. Visit the instructions page for detailed instructions and videos.
The stencils can be used over and over again to apply the stencil to your racquets.
Once applied, the ink is permanent on the strings. In order to change the stencil, it is necessary to re-string the racquet.
