Simplex FD loose. Does shimming work?

This is on my late 70's PX 10. The FD allen nut is tight, yet it slips down on the seat tube when you try to shift up to the larger ring. Unfortunately it's the half plastic, half chrome model. Does shimming work on these? Is it a viable solution, or does it continue to get worse until it breaks?,,,,BD
