slimier

More like mucus

Slimier is the comparative form of slimy—more covered in or resembling slime.

Something slimier than another is wetter, more viscous, or more unpleasantly slippery: The slug trail was even slimier than I expected.

In the figurative sense, a slimier person is more unctuous or repulsively ingratiating: Each lawyer seemed slimier than the last.
