Just bought nice WJ Jeffery SxS that stock fit is perfect for me, however the London Guns recoil pad surface is very "slick" and has tendency to slide downward when shouldered. Anyone have suggestions or experiences on how to make face of pad less slippery.

I would try lightly sanding the base of the pad with a superfine 800 grit wet dry paper
That Said I would wait for further advice from others on this board as I have not had the problem you describe.

Remove the pad from the gun stock then have the face of the pad sand blasted to roughen the surface.
The only lessons in my life I truly did learn from where the ones I paid for!

If you don't mind the look, I used a piece of duct tape trimmed to fit on a slick butt. It worked fine .

A strip of Velcro. It comes in various widths and has
adhesive already applied. Removal is no problem.

Double sided clear tape works wonderfully and lasts a long time. Easily removed and replaced. Easy to install. Fit feeling and length of pull are unaffected  https://www.amazon.com/Scotch-Double-Dis...ided+clear+tape

When I competed in m/l roundball rifle competition I began shooting an Appalachian style mountain rifle which had no butt treatment at all, just smooth sanded and finished wood. It slipped around and caused me angst. I glued a piece off a roll of 80 grit emery cloth to it, with the rough side out. It stayed where I put it from that day on. Worked wonderfully, still on there.
You may not want something so obvious as that on a nice English double, however.
