Have you considered Talon Grip? They have black and green for the CPX-2.

Yeah, I saw that but I didn't really want to put the black tape over the pink grip. Kind of defeats the purpose of getting that color. I figure it'll be easier to find skateboard tape that matches the gun. Not as easy as a precut pattern but it is what it is.

I don't know how good it is, but amazon had lots of it.
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=pink+skateboard+tape&ref=nb_sb_noss_2 What about something like one of these? https://www.ebay.com/itm/HANDLEITGRIPS-Gray-Textured-Rubber-Grip-Tape-Pink-SKULL-KIT-for-Glock-19-Gen-4/284083402501 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Turbo-Grip-Strips-3-4-PINK-Textured-Bowling-Tape-Pack-30-Pieces-/361403461411 |

The two eBay links don't go to any tape but the Amazon one is a good choice, thank you.
Are there any tips to applying skateboard tape other than making making sure the surface of the gun is clean? |

Skateboard tape isn't very flexible so it won't lay flat on curved surfaces. You could potentially make it work by making cuts along the gradient to help it lay flatter but that sounds complicated. I used skateboard tape on my CZ75 but only on the front and back straps where the grip is generally cylindrical. Using smaller segments of tape on different sections of the grip might work as well. The issue is larger pieces won't bend to lay flat.
For general application advice, I'd first use soap and water to clean the grip surface then wipe it down with rubbing alcohol and let dry. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Dawson Precision has bright pink grip tape. I looked at their site before posting and completely missed that, so thank you! I'm guessing it'll be more flexible than the skateboard tape. Looks to be a good match for my gun color too. Much thanks! |

When installing skateboard tape I warm the area with a hair dryer after cleaning with alcohol.
Once the tape is applied I use rubber bands over night. Results have been good. Good Luck |
