Slips Away Marine Safety-Grip Tape - Black - 100mm x 18.3m

While durable, this tape is specifically engineered for harsh marine environments and saltwater resistance. For general household use, other Slips Away products might be more appropriate.

When applied correctly to a clean, dry surface, it offers an exceptional service life, especially in marine conditions where its salt-resistant properties are most beneficial.

This tape is designed for hard surfaces. For flexible or soft surfaces like vinyl seats, its adhesion and effectiveness may be compromised. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

For optimal adhesion, it is recommended to apply the tape in temperatures between 50°F and 95°F (10°C and 35°C). Avoid applying to surfaces that are extremely hot or cold.

The tape is designed for wet conditions but not prolonged submersion without proper edge sealing. Its primary function is to provide grip on surfaces that get wet, not as a submerged anti-slip solution.

To remove, slowly peel the tape back at a sharp angle. You can use a heat gun on a low setting to soften the adhesive, making removal easier. Clean any residue with an appropriate cleaner.

Ensure the surface was completely clean, dry, and free of contaminants before application. Reapply pressure to the tape, paying attention to the edges. If adhesion failure persists, the surface may require a primer or the tape may need to be replaced.

Carefully lift the edge of the tape and reapply, smoothing out the bubble as you go. For small bubbles that cannot be smoothed, a pinhole can be made to release air, but this may compromise water resistance.

Ensure edges were pressed down firmly during application. For critical areas, consider sealing the edges with a marine-grade sealant after application to prevent water ingress.

Use a mild adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol to gently clean away any residue. Test removers on an inconspicuous area first.
