Worked well on areas of rubber boots painted and then sealed with translucent glitter paint, but it is still tacky on bare rubber. Any potential fixes??

May want to try Flex Seal Liquid Rubber Sealant Coating Spray. This product is not for rubber; more suitable for plastic/stone figurines.

I would use Klasse All-in-one wax-cleaner-polish for the exterior. It's mainly for paint but states it works great on glass, and headlights and does not stain rubber. I just used mine and it's great!

Sue has a great way of applying glitter with regular polish, the white will help get a truer color from the glitter. I tried to use this product with Gelish polish. I cure any color or clear Gelish polish then tap the glitter into the sticky layer with a dry fluffy brush. Like i said in my review, I didn't like the outcome of this glitter at ALL. I suggest any Martha Stewart glitter, which you can also find on Amazon or your local craft store. Wish you luck with this glitter!

I brushed it on patent leather which is has a plastic coating. As long as the plastic will not be bending (as a shoe would) it does work with a few layers

You could spot test. I would try a primer first, and if it sticks, go for it. Another idea is to try some of that spray paint specially made for plastic as an undercoat.

I used it on my wives boots and it worked fine. I also used it on my work boots and it did not work well. I would stick to using this on tennis shoes or boots like you mentioned.

You mean like a knitted sock bottom to some no-slip rubber soles, or something similar? It should, but make sure you use some sandpaper on anything with a very smooth surface. I was able to glue a slick piece of leather to some cotton fabric, but the first time I tried, they came apart because I hadn't sanded the leather properly to give it a good surface to adhere to (it was nearly glass-like with how slippery and smooth the surface was before I roughed it up).

Did it work before? Rubber gaskets can be the problem . Soak in mild soapy water dry completely and try again.

I use it on $1000 Luchese boots with no problem. On my older worn boots, it does temporarily darken them a little (a day to weeks, depending on the condition), but so far they have come back beautifully. I'd try a little on a cuff or something before committing the whole jacket. And like I said in the review it takes VERY little of this stuff (like a spray or two on a shammy. If you spray it directly on the leather, you've already used too much), followed by gentle buffing.

Unfortunately, I don't think this would work for shoes. I would LOVE to find a product that would work for shoes and boots! I wish someone would sue the pants off manufacturers who make slippery soles. You can't find real rubber soles anymore, everything is synthetic.

I doubt if anyone knows the answer. Best stuff in 50 years for boots, but I know of no one who has used it on fine shoes. Suggest you email them at https://www.obenaufs.com/index.php?route=information/contact

I would think it would work great. I have used it on suede and smooth leather shoes and boots with no issues. It does not leave any indication they have been treated.

Tom, I love the eternabond but I was using it to fix seams on a metal roof. For that the best prep was Acetone but I'm pretty sure that stuff will not play well w/ your rubber roofing. I can't speak to how much you'll need because it really is based on the amount of dirt, mold you have. My suggestion would be to pick up whatever cleaner you'll need at your local hardware, home depot or lowe's and just return what you don't use. You definately need it as clean and dry as possible. If you put it on right that stuff ain't coming off. Hope this helps.

Use slight warm water, and rub in circles. DO NOT DAMP, it will ruin tackiness. Sometimes water destroys the rubber and its spin, you may just use your clean fingers and rub off the dust after you put some moisture on it with your breath. Good luck and always add a cover

warm the boots up...in sunny spot maybe? and re buff them. Too much wax makes em sticky. Heat and buff thins the coating.

I used this on a pair of soft suede boots that were a beige taupe color. I think this spray did a good job and protects my boots. It didn't darken the suede either. I can recommend. I imagine if it did well on these light color boots it will work for you.

YOU DID NOTHING WRONG! That's the ugly little secret manufactures don't advertise. It changed the color of my boots and attracts dirt. The only boots itLooks good on are BLACK boots, and they attract dirt.
