I put the decals on my PM9 about a week ago and loved them. I had been pocket carrying all that time. Well my IWB Silent Thunder holster came in and I realized the grips are very abrasive and when carried IWB, they will rub you raw unless you wear liner/ undershirt (I don't).
So I removed the decals. They came off real easy and left no residue. Not too sad because they were only 10 bucks. Just thought I'd let any prospective buyers know the limitations if carried IWB

I have the Qwik-Grip rubber sleeve. It feels great, especially when putting a lot of rounds through the gun. But I have found that it interferes greatly when drawing my gun from my pocket holster. It is not as much of a problem when using my OWB belt holster because it provides pretty good combat grip access, but is more of a problem when using my low riding IWB Kydex holster. In all situations, the natural tackiness of the rubber makes it a little harder to slide my fingers in place around the grip, and it is a little harder to feel precisely how the gun is positioned in my hand because the rubber is soft and smooths over the grip textures. The Qwik-Grip adds very little thickness, but it does add some. I think I may slide it on for days at the range, but leave it off for daily carry.

just a suggestion, but if you are still looking for a grip add on you may consider giving the rubber talon grips a try. i haven't had any problems with them being too abrasive carrying IWB or too tacky for practical pocket carry. there is a link in my sig if you want to see some good pics and my intitial impressions. i have to add some updates now that i've been using them for a few weeks.

Agreed. The Talons provide a great purchase and do not irritate skin at all.
