The absolute best thing for adding friction to keep the prop on is open mesh plumber's sandcloth or the open mesh drywall sanding sheets. Both are very course and are equally rough on both sides. I don't bother with it if the prop is going directly against the metal drive washer of the engine or against an aluminum backplate that is textured to grip the prop, but it is mandatory on a plastic backplate.
