Or perhaps the areas that aren't worn has some sort of non-porous surface that prevents the goo from exiting. Too bad there isn't documented research about the longevity of rubber compounds. I guess we could talk to the Trojan scientists. See what they say. :dunno |

Whoops, I didn't realize someone had already talked about the latex grip stuff. Well at least I gave you the name of a store to buy it at. Here is a sprayable version |

I'm curious to find out if the resulting grip is "no slip" or not; the original wheels were pretty slick and I'd prefer them to be that way again if possible. |

I use rubber in quotes because real rubber doesn't break down like that. |

On your steering wheel, it might even produce a slicker surface than the original coating. |
