Product Information

Full details

The Slips Away Anti-Slip Tape in White is designed for anyone needing a non-abrasive grip in wet or barefoot environments. Its key benefit is providing superior traction on surfaces like boat decks and shower floors without being harsh to the touch. A potential caveat is the need to seal edges in high-traffic or constantly wet areas for maximum longevity. This tape offers a durable, flexible, and water-resistant solution that can be cut to custom sizes, making it versatile for various applications.

FAQs

Is this tape suitable for continuous submersion in water?

While water-resistant, it is best suited for areas that get wet but are not continuously submerged. For prolonged submersion, edge sealing is highly recommended.

Can I use this tape on a textured surface?

The tape adheres best to smooth, clean surfaces. Textured surfaces may offer less reliable adhesion. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

How long does the adhesive last?

With proper installation and care, the adhesive is designed for long-term use. Longevity can be extended by ensuring a clean application surface and sealing the edges in demanding environments.

Is the white color prone to staining?

The white surface is easy to clean. While any light color can show marks, its non-porous nature allows for simple wipe-downs to remove most stains.

Can I remove and reapply the tape?

While it can be removed, it is generally not recommended for reapplication as the adhesive may lose its effectiveness.

What kind of sealant should I use for the edges?

Use a flexible, waterproof sealant compatible with the surface material. Consult sealant manufacturer guidelines for marine or wet area applications.

Troubleshooting

Tape is not sticking well.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and completely dry before application. Reapply pressure to the tape, paying special attention to the edges. Consider using a sealant on the edges for added adhesion.

Bubbles under the tape.

This can occur if air is trapped during application. Try to lift the edge carefully and reapply, smoothing out the air. If bubbles are significant, you may need to remove and reapply the tape to a clean surface.

Tape is peeling at the edges.

This often happens in high-moisture or high-traffic areas. Clean the edge, dry thoroughly, and apply a small amount of appropriate edge sealant to secure it. Ensure the initial surface preparation was optimal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Clean the surface thoroughly to remove any dirt, oil, or moisture. Ensure the area is completely dry.
  2. Cut the tape to the desired size and shape using sharp scissors or a utility knife.
  3. Apply the tape firmly to the clean, dry surface, pressing down to ensure good adhesion.
  4. Optional: Seal the edges with a suitable sealant for high-traffic or extremely wet areas to enhance durability and prevent water from getting underneath.

Compatibility:

Suitable for a variety of non-porous surfaces including fiberglass, tile, sealed wood, metal, and plastic. Ensure the surface is smooth and clean for optimal adhesion.

Care:

Clean regularly with mild soap and water. Use a soft brush or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the tape's surface or adhesive.
