Default Gorilla Grip for giving Wilson Pro Overgrips "new life"?

I have huge slippery problems when I play. The only time my racquet doesnt twist or slips is when I have a totally new Wilson Pro Overgrip. The "glue" feel from the super tack keeps my hand on the handle perfect. But after only a couple of hours when the overgrip is a little dirty my hands slips immediately.
Could Gorilla Grip give "new life" and make the overgrip tacky like a new one in store?
That would be great because it is really expensive to buy a new overgrip every week.

Is Gorilla Grip + Wilson Pro = true?

Thanks.

You may have to go with Tourna like me.

I use Yonex Super Grap. The most I'll keep it on in the summer is for 3 sets and then it goes in the trash. If you can afford to, change overgrips more often. In any event, buy a bunch of wrist bands and rotate through them often during a match.

Agree with the idea of Tourna grip. The grip might tend to wear out a bit quicker depending on the conditions you are playing in, however, it does absorb the best!
