Re: Adding friction material to timing belts

You could always try a flexible latex caulk as a grippy material, or as something to attach a stretchy grippy material. I work at a lumberyard, and Lexel always advertises that their latex caulk is super flexible and adheres to everything, and from the display samples I've seen, I have no reason to dispute that. It might work, it might not, but there is only one way to find out.
