FAQs

Is this tape suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the Slips Away tape is water-resistant and durable, making it suitable for outdoor applications like boat decks and pool edges. For optimal longevity, edge sealing is recommended.

Can I use this tape in my shower?

Absolutely. The non-abrasive, rubber-like surface is safe and comfortable for bare feet in wet areas like showers, and it is water-resistant.

How do I cut the tape to size?

You can easily cut the tape to your desired dimensions using sharp scissors or a utility knife.

What is the best way to ensure the tape stays adhered?

Ensure the surface is perfectly clean and dry before application. For critical areas or high moisture environments, sealing the edges of the tape after application is highly recommended.

Is the green color standard for all Slips Away tape?

This guide specifically refers to the green variant. Slips Away tape may be available in other colors.

Can I remove the tape if needed?

The tape is designed for strong adhesion. While it can be removed, it may leave adhesive residue. Gentle heat (like from a hairdryer) and an adhesive remover may help with removal and cleanup.

How often should I clean the anti-slip tape?

For best performance and hygiene, it's recommended to clean the tape regularly, at least weekly, using mild soap and water.

Troubleshooting

Tape is not sticking well

Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and free of any contaminants. Reapply primer if the surface is porous. Press down firmly, especially along the edges, to ensure full adhesion. Consider edge sealing.

Bubbles or wrinkles under the tape

Lift the affected section carefully and reapply, smoothing out the tape from the center towards the edges to remove air. Ensure the surface is smooth before application.

Tape peeling at the edges

This often occurs in high-traffic or wet areas. Reapply firm pressure. For a lasting solution, clean the edges thoroughly and apply a suitable edge sealant as recommended.

Reduced grip over time

Clean the surface of the tape to remove any accumulated dirt or residue that might be reducing traction. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions:

  1. Clean the Surface: Ensure the application area is thoroughly clean, dry, and free from grease or debris. For porous surfaces like unsealed wood or concrete, apply a suitable primer and allow it to dry completely.
  2. Cut to Size: Measure and cut the tape to the desired dimensions using sharp scissors or a utility knife.
  3. Peel and Apply: Carefully peel off the backing paper, avoiding touching the adhesive.
  4. Press Firmly: Position the tape and press down firmly from the center outwards, ensuring good contact and eliminating any air bubbles. For best results, use a roller or squeegee.
  5. Edge Sealing (Recommended): For high-traffic areas or applications in constantly wet conditions, apply a sealant around the edges of the tape to prevent water ingress and improve adhesion.

Compatibility:

The tape adheres well to most smooth, clean, and sealed surfaces including tile, linoleum, sealed wood, metal, and fiberglass. It is not recommended for use on rough or unsealed surfaces without proper preparation.

Care Instructions:

Clean the tape regularly with mild soap and water using a soft cloth or brush. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the surface. Ensure the tape is dried thoroughly after cleaning.
