I have a Duncan Raptor, and the silicone friction sticker isn’t sticking. It’s coming off and flopping around as the yoyo spins. Is there a special kind of glue I should use to put it back, or get new stickers? If I need to replace them, are they 12 or 13.7mm, I can’t tell.

You probably need new stickers. The Duncan Silicone Groove (SG) Stickers are the recommended replacement. Clean the surface before you put the new ones on.

> This is replacement response for your silicone groove Duncan yo-yos like the new Raptor and Duncan's future aluminum yo-yo releases.The 19mm pads are also compatible with any yo-yos that use the CBC Slim Pad Size 19mm OD.Not sure if it will fit? Feel...

Thanks cool. I’ve only played this for about 20 hours, I hope I don’t have to replace it that often.

You shouldn’t if u clean out the grooves before putting in new pads.
