I have a set of Henderson 7m gloves that have no grip material on them at all, just pure neoprene. Is there a product that is made specifically to provide a grippy surface without sacrificing flexibility? I'd like to dip the fingertips into something that will provide a non-slip surface.
 
If I recall correctly, I've heard 'tool dip' recommended before. Check your local hardware store.
 
I use tool dip. Its great just don't coat the whole glove and put it on in thin layers
 
I've seen gloves that people have added sand or a different gritty substance into whatever glue is used. Might help.

I'm mainly trying to get more dexterity in the fingertips so its easier to handle things like BC inflator hose fittings. I think I'll try a thin tooldip coating and see how it feels.

thx
