What can be applied to the suction cup on my GPS to keep it from popping off. It might have something to do with the S. Florida heat but not sure.
Any suggestions?

I use the bean bag (aka non skid friction mount)that sits on my dash it connects like the suction mount to the back of the gps but every once in a while it slides around on hard turns.

| You didn't say what brand of GPS you had but Garmin makes dashboard disks that may help you.

I use them. The suction cup sticks much better to the disks than to the windshield. |

Not only does the beanbag work good, but you also don't leave the tell tale signs of a GPS system for some thief to take advantage of.

RAM mounts makes a neat daisy-style suction cup adapter for the dashboard... it'll conform to any surface. I had one and removed it, adhesive left no residue/damage.
