    Rat Glue Removal?

    Can anyone remove rat glue from a Wishon Driver head for me in the Ottawa area? If so, how much will it cost? Head has quite a bit from what I understand...probably 15 grams or so.

    Please let me know. PM if you prefer.

    Thanks,
    Al

    How was the rat glue added in the first place? Through the hosel bore or was a hole drilled in the bottom of the head?

    Either way, what you might try is turning the head so that the hole is at the bottom and putting the club under a heat lamp. My understanding is that the rat glue will soften and some of it should hopefully drain out.

    I have never tried this myself BTW.

    Never done one but this what I would attempt.

    Drill out the hosel plug. If weight was added down the hosel then there has to be a plastic plug at the bottom of the hosel.
    Put in in a vise upside down. Heat it with a heat gun for a about a minute(or more) and a then hope that most of it drips out. Leave it upside down overnight. Most of it will come out.
