is there anything like silicone that can be applied to gloves to improve grip?

[ForkinGreat]

The rubber or silicone pattern on my fave gloves has worn off, what can I use to improve braking finger grip on the levers?

Does anyone know what mtb glove makers apply to the braking fingers of gloves to get that sticky rubber grip? & is it available at a non-ripoff price?

I was thinking of giving a neutral cure silicone like this a go. fingers crossed it wont root my various gloves, some leather, and a pair of winter neoprene gloves...

You could apply some silicone or grip material to the brake lever, rather than the glove.

You can add a bit of grip tape to the brake lever

I think I saw someone using the Rough side of velcro tape on the levers for grip. I can’t recall where.

The problem isn’t your gloves, it’s ur grips.
I’m using these on my current ride. Goes hard. and the best grip is actually gloveless.

Do what @pink poodle said. Put grip on the lever.

Is that the vibrating vibration reduction model of those grips @frenchman?

Heatshrink on levers could also work if you didn’t want to use an abrasive tape?
