I’m sorry to hear yours didn’t work. I’ve got some that’s been on since the mid 90s.

Might be worth a try but I'm concerned about the chinesium ratings.... otherwise, looks like a solid contender.

Tack welds. File them down if they're too sharp.

I've had good luck with these hexagonal stick on grip tape thingies. They make other shapes & sizes including grip tape for your pistols. The smaller ones will probably wrap nicely around your 1/2" pipe in a spiral pattern.

Oops. Looks like I didn't update.

So, in true Weenie fashion, I was overthinking things.

There's a natural grab handle on my truck that I didn't see/realize.

That being said, I made the handle anyway. I bought a spray can of rubber bedliner for $12. Sanded down the pipe to make sure it grabbed. Then got a 8oz box of sand texture for paint for $2..

I painted a layer of bedliner, sprinkled some sand on it, sprayed some more bedliner, sprinkled some sand on it, basically did half a dozen coats like that... and it's grippier than a MF, even soaking wet (tried it with wet hands).
