gummed
Coated with adhesive
Gummed describes something coated with adhesive: gummed labels, gummed envelopes.
You moisten the surface to activate the glue.
As past tense of gum, it means to chew without teeth—The baby gummed his teething ring—or to clog with sticky residue: The engine was gummed up with old oil.
