Rubber coating for slick shoes?
Has anyone tried a spray-on coating to:
1. Protect
2. Give traction to
slick soled road shoes? I picked up a pair of carbon soled shoes which are slick as snot but are also taking a beating if I don't ballerina walk. I'm thinking of spraying autoimotive undercoat or something like that on the soles to give them more traction and protect the carbon from chips.
No, I don't care about looks or weight.

Seems a reasonable solution. You might also consider skate board tape. It's that skid resistant stuff on top of boards.
