But if you care for your bat, you can slow this damage so that your bat continues to serve you well. Most of this blog relates to bats facing a hard ball. <strong>Junior bats facing a soft ball<\/strong> aren\u2019t exposed to the same level of damage. You need to oil you bat, and compress the wood fibres to increase it\u2019s playing life.<\/p><p>Some bats have been pressed when they are factory made. Often these bats have a sticky clear plastic stuck to the bat face, a rubber guard glued onto the bat toe, and possibly fibreglass taped along the bat edges. <em>All of this is to help protect the bat<\/em>. It does save you some work, but the bat still needs some Knocking In. The bat facing prevents you from oiling the face, but it is often a good idea to apply Linseed Oil to the back during the season. Be careful to avoid the bat makers stickers.<\/p><div style=\"height:14px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:34%\"><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n<p><\/p><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:64%\"><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-left is-style-default is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cBeing one step ahead of a fashion trend is not so important to me.

Do this before any Knocking In. Apply about \u00bd teaspoon of oil to a cloth and rub on the bat face, edges, toe and back. Avoid the bat makers stickers. After 24 hours you should lightly sand the face with 180 grit paper. \u201cIt probably took about two months (to get over it). A lot of that was in the last lockdown where I was stuck indoors, going from training to home, training to home. A lot of people think, \u2018<em>Cool, you\u2019re going into training\u2019<\/em>. But if you can\u2019t escape training when you go home you are just stuck in rugby mode constantly.
