If it's a ball joint that you manage to pop out, it's better to use the water texture. It leaves a transparent flexible layer that creates more friction. For other joints, you can apply the reducer. Of course, always start small, if you need more friction, add more and let it dry. I usually apply it, pose it, put it back in my display and forget about it lol
The more you can dismantle a joint, the better. Pic related, Zodd's shoulder joint was loose so I completely dismantled it for better results.
