What deflection are you getting at what pressure?  Belt dressing (not
recommended by belt manufacturers) will make the surface sticky and
degrade it.  Wax will allow it to slip without the awful
squeal.  Correct tension really ought to give the results you
seek.  If the belt surface is glazed from slippage or ???, might try
a stiff wire brush to remove it but I'd suggest simply replacing it.
