Troubleshooting

Tape is not sticking well

Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and smooth. Reapply pressure using a roller or heavy object. For porous surfaces, consider a primer designed for anti-slip tape adhesion.

Air bubbles forming under the tape

Carefully lift the edge of the tape where the bubble is and reapply, smoothing out the air as you go. Alternatively, prick the bubble with a small needle and press flat.

Grit surface wearing down quickly

Ensure the tape is applied to a surface that can support its intended use. For extremely high-traffic areas, consider reinforcing edges or using a more robust application method.

Tape is peeling at the edges

Apply edge sealer or a compatible adhesive around the perimeter of the tape to create a better seal and prevent lifting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the surface is thoroughly clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or any loose debris.
  2. Measure and Cut: Cut the tape to the desired length using scissors or a utility knife.
  3. Apply: Carefully peel off the backing paper, starting from one end. Apply the tape smoothly to the surface, pressing down firmly as you go to eliminate air bubbles.
  4. Press Down: Once applied, use a roller or strong pressure to ensure the adhesive makes full contact with the surface.

Compatibility:

The tape is designed for use on a wide variety of surfaces including wood, tile, concrete, metal, and painted surfaces. It is best suited for smooth, non-porous surfaces for optimal adhesion. It is not recommended for use on flexible surfaces or areas with extreme temperature fluctuations.

Care:

Clean the tape regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the grit surface. Ensure the edges remain well-adhered to prevent water seepage underneath.
