Great, just use washing up liquid as well!
1 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: These are just the right size and they went on perfectly. Although I did follow the advice I'd seen online, which was to put a tiny - very tiny - amount of washing up liquid on the foot and to let it dry a little before putting the rubber tube on. With that advice though, the rubber tube went on like a dream!

Cons: No cons

Wolf Foot tubes, expensive, but essential!

Pros: They are high friction and grip the fiddle well so the shoulder rest is unlikely to fall off, easy to put on with the addition of a (very little) soap and water, let 'em dry before you use the shoulder rest otherwise they come off again. I had to cut them in half to fit one of my Wolf shoulder rests. The yellow ochre foot tubes are best, the black ones mark my light coloured fiddle.

Cons: Expensive for a bit of rubber tubing! Unfortunately they are essential to the working of the shoulder rest so they have you over a barrel unless you can find an alternative supply.

Other: Bite the bullet and get 'em. I knocked 1 point off the rating because of the cost, they're not a lot of money but for a little bit of rubber tubing it's a bit steep.

Good quality and CAN be fitted easily
2 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: They are great! Did exactly what I needed and had no problem fitting them on.

Cons: If you hadn;t read how to get the foot tube onto the foot then you've have a terribly hard time trying to fit them.

Other: Having read info from other reviews, I followed similar ips to the following to get the feet tubes fitted...wet tip of finger, wipe lightly across soap, then wipe finger over foot of shoulder rest. Just enough to act as a lubricant to help get foot tube on...too muc soap and it will slide right off. But it was fairly easy.

Great, they did the job.

Pros: Once we managed to get them to stay on they fitted perfectly.

Cons: They were a little difficult to fit but liquid soap did the trick, although for the first day they kept popping off.
