As many of you probably know, the RoboRaptor's inner foot pads, (as shown here)

grind down very easily, even on linoleum. I've come up with a solution to help make the pads more slippery (which is desirable) and it will help protect them from grinding down. Perhaps some of you have already thought of this. The solution is 2 to 3 coatings of........ fingernail polish. It's been working for me. Just thought I'd share my experiences with the community. See ya!

Well....... unfortunatley, I didn't apply them quickly enough, and so my pads are ground down halfway. And i swear, I've only used her on the linoleum. Help please!

I just bought mine today and I was concerned about the pads. They are small and thin. I'll try this and hope it works. Thanks!

Stabcity, if the polish doesn't work, I'll have to take off the pads and make epoxy molds to make new ones. If this happens, then I'll post my procedures in this thread to benefit the whole community.
