Answer 1

1. Take your glove.

2. Get string

3. Get oil

4. Get a ball

5. Oil everything, not the inside.

6. Put the ball in the glove, wrap the string around it

7. Wait a day or two.

If you need it better repeat.

* Some gloves come pre Flared*

Answer 2

the laces won't do anything, best way is definetely to use glove oil
