Surface Lock Protocol
Prep. Rinse. Dry. Climb.
Follow the complete sequence before climbing so TACC can settle into a clean, responsive contact state.
02–03 drops / 10+ minutes / water only
Application Sequence
Nine Steps to Contact
Keep the order intact. The waiting, water-only rinse, full dry, and chalk steps are part of the process.
- Apply
Apply 2–3 drops to hands before climbing.
- Rub In
Rub the product over the hands until the moisture feel is gone.
- Allow
Allow approximately 10+ minutes.
- Rinse
Rinse excess oils from the hands using water only.
- No Soap
Do not use soap during this rinse.
- Dry
Dry hands fully.
- Chalk
Chalk up.
- Climb
Start your session.
- Reapply
Reapply between attempts if needed.
During the Session
Reset the Surface
TACC can increase how much chalk and hold residue your hands collect over time. A quick water-only rinse removes the buildup and resets the skin for clean contact. Dry fully before chalking again.

Is TACC a lotion or moisturizer?
No. TACC is a pre-session skin-prep product, not a recovery product.
Will it make my hands greasy?
Not when used correctly. Rub it in, rinse excess oils off with water, dry fully, and chalk up.
Can I use it with chalk?
Yes. TACC is designed to work with chalk.
What surfaces is it for?
