Product Information
Full details
The Slips Away Anti Slip Tiles in Yellow are designed for anyone needing enhanced safety on steps and stair nosings, effectively preventing slips and falls in both domestic and commercial environments. Their key benefit is providing a high Coefficient of Friction, even with oil or water present. A caveat to note is that proper adhesion on porous substrates requires following specific SlipsAway procedures. These pre-cut 140mm x 140mm tiles offer easy self-adhesive application and resistance to common industrial chemicals.

Troubleshooting
Tile not adhering well
Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned, dried, and free from any contaminants like oil or dust. For porous surfaces, confirm that SlipsAway's specific preparation procedures have been followed.
Reduced grip in wet conditions
While designed for wet conditions, ensure the surface is not excessively flooded. Confirm the product has been fully effective for 48 hours post-application.
Damage to the grip surface
Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners. If significant wear or damage occurs, the tile may need replacement.
Bubbles under the tile during application
Ensure slow and steady application. If small bubbles appear, try to push them towards the edge with firm pressure. For larger bubbles, it may be necessary to lift and reapply.
