Two different places to wrap
Finger tape or paddle grip tape?
Start with the surface you want to wrap. This page is about finger wraps. If you want to change your paddle handle's surface or thickness, use the paddle grip guide.
Wrap your paddle.
An overgrip puts material around the handle. Adding or removing outer layers changes its thickness.

Self-adhering describes how the layers bond. Guard-Tex combines non-stretch cotton with a cohesive coating containing natural rubber latex.
How self-adhering tape works →Using the roll
Overlap is what makes it hold.
A strip placed across a finger does not attach like adhesive tape. Guard-Tex needs contact with another layer of itself.
Unroll without stretching.
The woven cotton is non-stretch. Unroll the amount you need and follow the package directions for wrapping.
Bring tape onto tape.
Overlapping passes give the wrap another layer to bond to. Press the finishing end onto the tape beneath it.
Choose your application.
Finger wrapping and paddle wrapping serve different purposes. Use the directions for your application; this page does not provide treatment instructions for blisters or jammed fingers.

Product questions
Pickleball finger tape, explained.
What is pickleball finger tape?
Finger tape wraps around the fingers; paddle grip tape wraps around the handle. Guard-Tex is a non-stretch woven cotton wrap whose overlapping layers stick to one another rather than adhering to your skin.
How does Guard-Tex stay in place?
The wrap relies on tape-to-tape contact. Overlap the layers and press the finishing end onto the tape beneath it. A single strip laid across a finger does not work like an adhesive strip. Follow the package directions.
Does Guard-Tex stretch?
No. Guard-Tex is non-stretch woven cotton. Unroll it to the length you need instead of pulling it longer.
Which width and pack are shown?
The featured starter pack contains one white ¾-inch roll and a storage tin. Each roll is 90 feet, or 30 yards, long. You can change the color, pack and width in the shop; 1½-inch tape is also available.
Is finger tape the same as a paddle overgrip?
No. The difference is where you apply it: finger tape wraps your fingers, while an overgrip wraps your paddle handle. Guard-Tex can be used for either application, following the product directions.
Does Guard-Tex contain latex?
Yes. Guard-Tex contains natural rubber latex. Do not use it if you have a latex allergy.
