Our GTC friend in St. Louis taught me to use rubber cement Prior to rolling. However, you may also have the same grit issue.

Rubber Cement 😮

Just a light coat or heavier?

Try these tips–maybe they will help.

Place a dryer sheet in your pocket. Put your throwing hand in your pocket and rub your fingers and thumb on it while a pay off is being made at the other end of the table. We find that the Bounce brand dryer sheet in the orqange box seem to work best. Just be descrete when you put your throwing hand in your pocket.

Assuming you are on a table with a felt cover simply run the ends of your fingers on the felt. I have seen Dom do this. The felt will take some moisture off the finger tips.

Wash your hands frequently. At a crowded table, a couple of players before the dice get to you, excuse yourself from the table and head to the bath room. Dry your hands thoroughly.

I know these things work for Alligator Rose and I. Sorry the Sweat Shield doesn’g help you. It works good for us. Don’t use too much. We only use a a small drop on the tip of the middle finger and rub this small amount on the tips of the thumb and the 3 fingers. Just don’t use too much and give it a chance to dry. I am sure you will come up with some ideas of your own.

Keep us posted on what you find works best for you.

I have a small climbers chalk bag I bought at REI an online outdoors store. Fits nicely in a small sandwich bag in my front pocket. Dip my fingers in prior to a roll and I’m good. Goldfinger uses the same substance but he keeps a mans handkerchief impregnated with it for camouflage.

Jimmy Neutron and I use a rosin bag. Make sure you wipe off the exsess on a pant legg or cuff. I find this works well.

There is a product called Sweat Shield that keeps your hands drive for many hours. I’ve seen it work on the oiliest hands. I’m sure there’s comparable products also out there. Hope this helps.

Howard – light coat. some keep it on, I rub it off and I’m dry and ready…

The best product I’ve found for cleaning my hands is Mr Clean Magic Eraser, a 2 pack will give me 8 small cut squares that does a great job of removing oils. the {clean effect} usually lasts about 45 minutes before I notice oils affecting my throw.

Hi Howard!

I have never used the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for cleaning my hands but if you find it works for you then maybe you should just go with that. You could put a square in your pocket to take to the casino with you.

You could try it at home to see if you could actually reach into your pocket before your throw and get enough cleaning action for your finger tips. If that won’t work then just go into the men’s room a couple of people prior to your throw and wash and apply the "Eraser" cleaning method.

Hope you find something that works for you!

I cut a bounce sheet in 4 pieces and do that for each day of my trip. I use one of the quarter pieces per session. I put them in a zip lock bag for transport in the luggage. Works great. 😎

Go to your favorite sporting goods store and get a rosin bag like product for rock climbers, I forget its name. Goldfinger and JBW use it with success. A very small amount is needed. Keep it in a baggie. Be discreet when rosining up.

Good Luck
