Slips Away Anti Slip Waterproof Marine Safety-Grip Non Skid Tape - Grey, 25mm X 18.3M

Yes, the Slips Away tape is designed for marine environments and is suitable for docks, gangways, and other surfaces exposed to water and salt.

When applied correctly to a clean, dry surface, the tape offers an exceptional service life, especially given its guaranteed resistance against saltwater exposure.

While designed for larger marine vessels, it can be used on kayaks or paddleboards for added grip, provided the surface is properly prepared and dry before application.

Removal may require heat (e.g., from a heat gun on a low setting) and careful peeling, potentially followed by adhesive remover to clean any residue. Avoid sharp tools that could damage the underlying surface.

This specific product is listed as grey. Please refer to other Slips Away product listings for alternative color options.

It is recommended to allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours before applying heavy traffic or foot-traffic, especially in very wet conditions, to ensure maximum adhesion.

Ensure the surface was meticulously cleaned and dried before application. Re-clean the surface and re-apply the tape, pressing firmly. Consider using a marine sealant on the edges for enhanced adhesion.

Carefully lift the affected section of tape and re-apply, smoothing it down from the center outwards to push out air. If bubbles are small and numerous, a pin prick to release air might be an option, followed by firm pressing.

Apply a marine-grade sealant along the edges of the tape to create a watertight seal and prevent lifting. Ensure all edges were pressed down firmly during installation.

Clean the tape surface to remove any accumulated dirt or grime that might be reducing traction. For heavily worn areas, replacement of the tape section may be necessary.
