    I use towel grips and grip powder, but the grip only lasts for about a few times before it smells, is crusty, and dirty. What can i do to extend it's life? e.g. wash with water

    I use towel grip at the moment. One way to get rid of the smell is to take it off from the bag and air dry it. Also, i layer my wooden handle with electrical tape to prevent moisture from seeping into the wood handle. You also can use comb to fluff out the towel strands after drying it. I hope this help to minimize the smell issue. For dirt, its pretty much cant be helped, as it is almost impossible to keep your palms squeaky clean every sessions.

    You can wear a wristband in order to absorb sweat that's running from your arm. Most of the sweat that wet your grip is actually comes from your arm, rather than your palm. I myself always wear a wristband when playing since I sweat like crazy when playing and i saved whole lot of grips with it.
