Can I replace my rubber hand grips
Rubber hand grips on EOS 300D are deteriorating and smudging anything they touch.
Can I replace them without replacing the cases?
Is this a good question?

Use some rubbing alcohol and just wipe the thin layer of sticky off. It will be smooth and shiny when done, not as slip proof as before, but the stickiness will be gone. No need to scrape it off, just a cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol. It will rub off the black layer of anti-slip coating. The cloth will turn black as you rub it off.

This worked well. Thanks Michael!
Thank you yes this worked great. I used denatured alcohol this was what I had available in my shop. I went to the camera shop to see what could be done for my covers. They told me that there was nothing I could do, replacement covers were not available and sent me on my way. They were only interested in selling me a new camera.

I have the same problem, but with an original canon rebel. Is there anyway to change the grip (purchase a new one) and if so, how do you change it?
