In the following sequence, you will see the next step is to place the tip on the ferrule. Make sure to put some glue on the ferrule side, too! Step 4: Place the Pool Cue Tip on the Ferrule Roughing up the bottom of your new pool cue tip is a good way of making sure the glue has somewhere to grab. Apply the supplied tip cement or your favorite adhesive (I also recommend any type of gel super glue) to the tip. It is important to make sure the tip is roughed up so the glue has something to adhere to. I do this by laying the sand paper on a flat surface to make sure as I sand the back of the tip I keep it perfectly flat and level. To do this, take your favorite tip and use a piece of sandpaper to rough up the glue side of the leather. Preparing the tip is the next step in the process. The rapid top sander in the Tweeten Repair Kit performs this step perfectly. A clean, flat ferrule surface is crucial for the glue to hold properly. Be sure to keep the sander nice and level. Just place the shaft against the guide as shown in the following pictures and rotate until any leftover dirt and glue are removed from the top of the ferrule. To do this you will now use the rapid top sander included in the repair kit. Once you are satisfied with your job removing the old tip you need to make sure the top of the ferrule is clean and as flat as possible. Be extra careful removing your old tip so you don't gash the side of the ferrule or your fingers. Just take your time and slowly remove any leather and excess glue as seen in the sequence below. This may take a few passes with the razor blade. Try and get as close to the ferrule as you can. To do this, you will need a nice sharp razor blade (please be careful folks, it’s hard to explain how you cut off your finger changing your cue tip). If your tip looks like this (or worse), then it's time to replace it! Step 1: Remove the Old Pool Cue Tip This is what a worn out pool cue tip looks like. This tip is pretty low and in danger of being both detrimental to your game and possibly even damaging your ferrule. The picture below shows our poor, worn out tip.
