Well your soft and sticky boot is exactly how my kneepad holders are/were.. They are literally almost paper thin, so I did put s few solid coats of paint on them. Next time they come off, I may add a few coats of the plasti dip/rubber stuff that I used on the handlebar pad and that's held up great so far. 3 trips out on the salt and not a single flake missing, yet when it was just rattle can paint, it would flake off if I rinsed it down with a setting any harder than "mist"...
