Can I mount my SeaSucker to a non-skid surface?

There are some tricks to helping your SeaSucker maintain a better hold on surfaces that are not perfectly smooth. The easiest is to moisten the sealing edge of your SeaSuckers vacuum cup. The water will fill in minute imperfections in the surface, which in turn will help your SeaSucker hold its vacuum. We recommend this technique even when mounting to a perfect surface. If the surface youre mounting to is a little rougher, then we recommend that you apply a water-based hair gel to the inside of the sealing edge of your SeaSuckers vacuum cup. Because the hair gel is viscous, it will fill in cracks and gaps in the vacuum seal even better than water alone, but because its water-based, it will wipe right up when youre through using your SeaSucker. Note that we dont advise you to use petroleum jelly or similar products because of their tendency to act as a lubricant you dont want your SeaSucker sliding around on the mounting surface!
