magic armor special abilities on non-armor


Advice

I was wondering if it is allowed to buy the special armor abilities on things that are not armor.
Could I get like adhesive on masterworked robes for a monk as an example.
I know you can't make custom magic items only ones in the book.
Just wondering.

You can get them on Bracers of Armor, but otherwise no.

However:

(Citing PRD)

"Alternatively, bracers of armor can be enchanted with armor special abilities. See Table: Armor Special Qualities for a list of abilities. Special abilities usually count as additional bonuses for determining the market value of an item, but do not improve AC. Bracers of armor cannot have a modified bonus (armor bonus plus armor special ability bonus equivalents) higher than +8. Bracers of armor must have at least a +1 armor bonus to grant an armor special ability. Bracers of armor cannot have any armor special abilities that add a flat gp amount to their cost."

Adhesive is a + 7k GP enhancement, so it can't be put on BoA.
