How do you make leather grippy?

Apparently a small spray of hairspray adds just enough tac for holding the over grip firmer. That’s a good idea. An old-fashioned alternative would be to put a couple drops of castor oil on the leather, rub it in, let it sit over night. Now you’ve got a nice, tacky oldschool leather grip.
