"My grip gave out mid-set. Blood on the bar."
Eight weeks into a heavy strength block. Pull-up volume tore my palm callus open at rep 47 of 50. Couldn't grip for four days. Tried Bag Balm, tape, the whole gym-rat stack. HARD REPAIR closed the rip in five nights. I was back on the rig for Saturday's WOD.

"I stopped seeing my athletes scale because of their hands."
Coaching CrossFit eleven years. The skin tear was the only injury I couldn't fix on the floor — members would skip Murph, tape their way through Cindy, or just bail. Started recommending HARD REPAIR six months ago. Half my Saturday class keeps a jar in their gym bag. The scaling-because-of-rips stopped.

"Three days off the wall every time my tips split."
Boulderer for nine years. Antihydral kept my skin dry enough to grip — but the trade-off was constant flappers. Every project meant 3-5 days off before the next session. HARD REPAIR closed the splits overnight. Cycled antihydral days + HARD REPAIR rest days for a month. Hit my hardest send of the year without a single skin layoff.

"I'd grip the bar and feel my palm split open again."
Powerlifting four years. After a heavy bench cycle my hands turned to bark — chalk locked into the cracks, every set reopened the splits. I'd warm up, peel the tape off, watch the bleeding start again. Two weeks on HARD REPAIR and the callus stayed intact through a 40kg squat PR. Hands hold up now.

"My members were bringing in Bag Balm. Now they bring in HARD REPAIR."
Run a strength + climbing gym. For years I watched athletes pass around tubs of veterinary balm and pharmacy creams that did half the job. HARD REPAIR is the first one I've kept in the gym office for emergency rips — five jars a quarter. Stops a torn callus from becoming a missed week of training.
James B. — Strength + climbing coach
★★★★★
"My fingertips peeled to raw layers after every session."
Calisthenics + ring work, eight years. Chalk on chalk on chalk + dropping from the rings = fingertips that looked like meat. I'd ice them at night, tape them in the morning. Started HARD REPAIR after a friend in the gym lent me his jar. Day 5 my pads weren't raw anymore. First muscle-up session without flinching was something else.

THE FORMULA
What Makes It Work
Four actives. One purpose: structural repair.
PETROLATUM
(Pharmaceutical Grade)
Creates an occlusive seal over damaged skin. Locks moisture in while the repair happens — no 20-minute evaporation window like water-based creams.
ALLANTOIN
Stimulates new cell growth in damaged tissue. The reason cracks close in 3–4 days instead of 3–4 weeks.
PANTHENOL
(Pro-Vitamin B5)
Penetrates deep into skin layers. Restores suppleness without a greasy film. Absorbed clean so tools and chalk grip normally by morning.
SQUALANE + SHEA BUTTER + SODIUM HYALURONATE
Three supporting actives that soften, seal, and bind moisture at multiple skin layers. No fragrance. No formaldehyde donors. Formula chosen for what works, not for what sells.

Questions we get a lot
How quickly will I see results?
Most users report visible improvement within 3–5 nights of nightly use. For deep callus tears or fingertip splits that have been compounding for months, give it a full 7–10 days before judging. If you see nothing after 14 days, the 100-day guarantee covers you — no forms, no return shipping.
Will it kill my chalk grip on the bar?
No — that's why we recommend night application. The formula absorbs clean overnight, so by morning your hands are ready for chalk and the bar. No greasy residue, no slip. Athletes running this protocol nightly train next-day with normal grip feedback. Apply before bed. Train clean.
Can I apply it before training?
Apply at night for the intensive repair protocol — not immediately before training. Softened skin on a knurled bar increases rip risk, not prevents it. The formula also works as a daily moisturiser between sessions — just not right before you grip a bar. Apply at night, train clean the next morning.
How does HARD REPAIR compare to WOD Welder or RipFix?
WOD Welder and RipFix are popular beeswax-and-essential-oil balms in the CrossFit and climbing community. HARD REPAIR takes a different approach: higher-petrolatum base for an occlusive seal, fragrance-free, and designed for night application so chalk grip is unaffected the next morning. We respect the brands that came before — we just built something for athletes who don't want fragrance or wax under their grip.
Is this suitable as a gift for an athlete?
Yes — one of our most-gifted purchases. The 2+1 bundle (£59.90 for 3 jars) is the most popular: one for the gym bag, one for the nightstand, one in reserve. Plain packaging, no pharmacy-shelf branding, and the 100-day guarantee applies regardless of who placed the order.
Does the guarantee cover bundles?
Every jar. Singles, bundles, doesn't matter. If any jar doesn't deliver visibly repaired skin within 100 days, contact info@grafthide.com and we refund the full order. No return shipping. No forms. No questions about why.
