Please do yourself a huge favor and contact brookstactical.com about their Agrip product. I use Agrip on my Glocks and frequently carry IWB, right next to my skin. The stuff is amazing. It's soft, like velvet, but when your hands are wet, it grabs!

I also use Agrip over my AR's Hogue grip and on my digital slr!

Thanks for the tip!!! I will look into that.

How is it holding up on your carry, is it flattening out or glazing over?

I've still got the Agrip on my daily-carry G26 that I installed a couple of years ago. It's a little "glazed-over," but that can be pretty easily remedied by washing/brushing.

I have palmar and plantar hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating of the hands and feet) and had HUGE problems with grip and accuracy. I threw the Agrip on my XD45 Tacticool and my groups tightened up considerably.

I don't carry (Wisconsin doesn't allow concealed carry), but it has held up very well for several months. I brush it with a small fingernail brush periodically and it grips like new afterwards.

Great idea. I usually throw a small piece under my thumb. Tough to beat the cost too.

Any issues with the exposed edge peeling up? I had an agrip on a P-32 I used to own prior to loosing faith in it. I had to continually re-aply the adhesive and/or rub it down. I loved the feel of the grip but didn't care for that aspect. I hope it was just my experience?
