That sounds super simple.
Thanks, youngandfree

You can also put on a grip cover like Hogue. That way you do not affect the original grip if you want to sell it.

I put traction grips or talon grips on most of my poly pistols. Choose the rubberized versions to get a nice grippy, but easy on the skin texture. This is like applying a decal - very easy.

I use skateboard tape, you can get it in rubberish or sandpaperish texture. Cheaper than custom cut grips like talon.

I have the rubber type Traction grips on my PT709 and both Beretta PX4s. Great stuff! Cut to your specific gun. Stick on, apply a little heat, it's good to go!

I rubbed the grips of my 45 Shield lightly with some already well-worn 200 grit garnet paper. Wipe it with a damp cloth afterwards. Do a little, you can always go back and do more. If you keep it off of the smooth bits so they don't get scuffed, no one would ever know you did anything.
