Troubleshooting
Chalk feels clumpy or moist.
Ensure the packaging is sealed tightly after each use and store in a dry environment. Clumped chalk can sometimes be broken apart by hand.
Minimal grip improvement.
Ensure hands are clean and dry before application. Reapply a thin, even layer for optimal results. Chalk effectiveness can vary based on environmental humidity.
Chalk seems to be getting used up too quickly.
Focus on applying a thin, consistent layer rather than a thick coating. Ensure proper application technique to maximize coverage and efficiency.
