'a rubbery sort of feel' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'slow kiss' is the wordplay.
'slow' becomes 'late' (I've seen this in other clues).
'kiss' becomes 'x'.
'late'+'x'='LATEX'

'with' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for latex that I've seen before include "Whitish milky fluid" , "Tree fluid used to make rubber" , "Milky fluid from poppies, rubber plants etc" , "Rubber solution" , "Milky substance from rubber tree" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
