Silicone recessing them is an age-old favorite.

I took one of the friction stickers off of my Freehand 2 and it made a world of difference. Spin time definately increased and I get just enough response for my tastes, especially when its an older pad. I wanna switch to the silicon ones, less responsive and they last longer.
