Think I will use marine goop in a thin layer. I placed the marine goop in hot, almost boiling water for 10 minutes and then opened it to put some on my shoes - it really made the stuff easy to work with. The tube of goop may harden on me - but I was trying to find a way to make it more workable. I will have the grippiest gloves in the world when this task is done. I'm gonna test it on a small area, of course. I'll let you know how it works after some use.
