That stuff could possibly make it worse! The syncromesh relies on a controlled amount of friction to work, so putting anti-friction additives in could be a waste of time and money - not only the cost of the Slick, but also the cost of the new oil you would need to get, to replace it!
Castrol Driveline (used to be called Syntrax) is as good a bet as any in these circumstances. Don't use a fully synthetic oil.
