I started this thread a few weeks ago to get help resolving a slippery RhinoSkin case: http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showt...583#post777583

I tried the Krylon spray-on, but that was not durable as it flaked-off easily.

I just found a much better solution! I went to the local sports shop and picked up a $5 pack of Wilson H2OVERGRIP for wrapping tennis racket handles. It is about 0.5mm thick with a rubber coating over a non-woven material. I cut it to the proper size to piece together on the outside of the case and secured them with Scotch Double Stick Tape.

The combo really grabs onto the cloth on the inside of my shirt pocket and virtually eliminates the possibility of the RhinoSkin case slipping out when I bend over.

It looks like this might be a good solution for GPS receivers and high G curves, but I have not tried it yet.

very creative, i never thought of that. Glad you found a solution since i too have this case.

Wow, I guess I did it right!

The application is not rocket science. Just cut the pieces to fit, turn them over and apply the double stick tape, then apply to the case. Make sure you use a durable, clean surface like a kitchen countertop to work on.

Wow nice. That's a great idea.

Thanks for the clever Idea!

An update: Over five months of daily use the H2OVERGRIP has stayed in-place...so I guess this is a winner (if you need it).

15 months later the H2overgrip is still holding firmly.

I never considered it a beauty contest, but its a lot prettier than seeing and hearing the "thud" or "splash".

In other words, better ugly and working than pretty and dead in a pool or in the middle of the street after flying out of your hand and being run over?

Exactamente!

Yeah, better than the "splash" for sure. I'm gonna get some of this and apply to my GPS receiver and my epass, see if I can get rid of the stickypad on the dashboard.
