If you mean something like GE Silicone Rubber that should work. You need something that will adhere firmly to the tray. However, kitty litter basins are a bit flimsy and have a tendency to bend or twist when you lift them up causing the liquid to spill out. My suggestion would be to go to a restaurant supply store. They make grey plastic basins for breaking down tables that are very heavy and do have deep ridges on the bottom. I routinely use one for washing. If you have a Sam's Club store nearby they sell two for about $9.00. They are designed for rough treatment and are quite sturdy.

Prints tend to stick and there is no way of getting tongs under them.
