nathaniel 0 #1 October 21, 2002 New jumpsuit came in... who knows a place to buy shoo goo in Chicago? Also, how noxious is the stuff, can I apply it indoors? Light grey body, orange knees and forearms. Charcoal booties. Orange stripes up the side... Charcoal / orange grippers... NathanielMy advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me, Lebowski? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #2 October 21, 2002 You can get it any any Wal-mart in the sporting goods area. You can also get it at any sporting goods store if thats closer to your house...Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #3 October 21, 2002 K-Mart, Target, any sporting goods store, it's usually in the camping section. I think it might also be marketed under the name SportsGoo, or something similar. The stuff isn't too bad, but it is messy to work with. Good luck. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 0 #4 October 21, 2002 You can also get it at ACE hardware and while you are there you can pick up the silicon spray for your once a month cable cleaning. You do do a once a month cable cleaning....right? right?? "hello is this on?" *tap*tap*tap*Fly it like you stole it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chutingstar 1 #5 October 21, 2002 You can buy it online. Here's one link: http://store.yahoo.com/nuway-shoerepair/shoegoo2.html Make sure you coat the bottom, sides and seams of the bootie. Just let dry overnight in a well-ventilated area. MikeChutingStar.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slotperfect 7 #6 October 21, 2002 SOak the tube in VERY hot water first; the Shoo Goo will be easier to work with. I used a tongue depressor to put mine on. Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merrick 0 #7 October 21, 2002 You can get the stuff just about anywhere, and it is quite pungeant so applying indoors might not be a great idea... personally, I wouldn't recommend it. I thought it would dry kind of 'rubbery' (for lack of a better word) and give me some extra traction in some of those slippery otter/caravan doors. Negative, the stuff dries hard and slick, and it also reduces the plyability in the bootie so they don't form to your foot as well anymore... mine slip off ALL the time. Wished I'd never used it, and I never will again. Blues! Merrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FYI... they are solvent based products, you need to provide ample ventilation when applying. The hot water trick does work, but make sure the cap is loose -- I had one open on the wrong end from pressure build up. (of course I wasn't paying attention to it much either) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But, I can't be positive. What's the difference, are they different products? Blues! Merrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weid14 0 #10 October 21, 2002 yeah, they are I used the goop by accident once, the goo is much better! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 0 #11 October 21, 2002 I never needed to goo my booties until I moved to CO. The landing areas here are dirt/gravel/sand/cactuses/crap after almost wearing a hole in the bottom of one from sliding out my landings I had no choice but to goo Fly it like you stole it!
