    Actually u can just get a normal absorbent powder from pharmacy. It cost around SGD$10 and can last quite long. It has been working well for me for the past 1 year.

    yea, i tried asking mjstrings but he said he doesn't carry it.
    btw i reccomend him as a seller lol bought AT 900T off him :)

    um i dunno about baby powder...won't it mess up the towel grip? or is it the same thing as yonex ac467? cause baby powder is made for "preventing rashes from a diaper" quoted from wikipedia "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talc"
    while the stuff i want is to prevent slippery-ness, in other words keep my hand dry. but then again, preventing rashes goes hand in hand with keeping dry...lol i dunno

    the only other way i've thought of is ordering it online through this site
    http://joybadminton.com/catalog/AC467-Grip-Powder-p-151.html
    but shipping for 1 is a whooping $18! :eek:

    Hey guys, was wondering the Yonex AC467 Grip powder is only meant for towel grips? Can it be used for PU grips as well? I know there is the AC467 Spray version, but they can't ship it from mybadmintonstore as its pressurised. so if you anyone could let me know whether the AC467 would work the same as the AC468 on a PU grip, let me know thanks.

    Shuttlehouse sells both powder and spray. Do you apply this stuff before you use your racket or during?

    It's all preference, for me, I use a towel grip, and I have yonex AC467 the powder. I usually use after I play with the grip, like it when the towel starts to feel a bit moist. (and plus, I use it to look like a professional :rolleyes:) haha

    If it works with other grips, I can't see why not.
