Hi,
How well will the tape hold up to shoveling? We are looking to put it on composite decking stairs.
Thank you,
Diane
Hi Town of Newton,
Thank you for your question. Yes, they will hold up, but it really just depends on how delicate and cautious the person is shoveling, Here are a few other options: https://kofflersales.com/p/anti-slip-decking-strips.asp?cid=79 Also, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th product on this page, https://kofflersales.com/metal-nosing.asp

My husband wants to know if we can use this on hard-fired ceramic floor tile that is outside on our entrance. It has been sealed many years ago but never waxed. It is in our garage, driveway and front entrance.
We ordered some of the Gator Grip #A636 and my husband is having a difficult time making it stick to the tile.
Thank you

I want to help an elderly couple who must use a full story high wooden stairway to enter and leave their house. Their steps are very slippery when wet and we are in a long-running wet weather pattern now. I want to apply some slip protection very soon to these steps. Do you have a product that can be applied to wet wood? I wouldn't mind tacking it down to help hold it in place.
Hi Daniel,
Thank you for your question. All non slip tape has has to be applied when the surface is completely clean and dry. One option are these stair treads in the drilled option, so they can be screwed to the steps. Please copy and paste this link to view. https://kofflersales.com/metal-stair-treads.asp

Can this tape be applied to the bottom of scatter rugs to prevent them from slipping?
Hi Angelo,
Thank you for your question. It may work, but it probably isn't the greatest application as it may scratch the floor. Please take a look at our Rug Pad products, they both have non slip backings. Feel free to copy and paste these links. http://kofflersales.com/p/kloud-carpet-comfort-rug-pad-standard.asp?cid=3700 http://kofflersales.com/p/carpet-comfort-rug-pad-non-slip.asp?cid=3700

We have outdoor concrete stairs that have been painted with a sanded paint. We want to add contrast steps as well as improve traction. Is the Super Grip tape appropriate for painted concrete?
Hi Mathew,
Thank you for your question. Yes, it will work on painted concrete. However, if the sand is very gritty then water may seep underneath. It's always advisable to test a small area first.

Hi Josh,
Thank you for your question. Either product works well with this scenario. However, since the ramp receives foot and wheel traffic it might be best to go with the KSC Super Grip.

Hi, I live on the beach in CT, we need a tape for our outdoor stairs for a little traction but mostly for visibility to ensure family elders don't miss the depth of the stairs as they visit. What do you recommend that is 1. easy to apply? I am not that handy! 2. something that is visible in the day time without being garish or overtly commercial looking 3. that can handle the blazing sun and freezing winters? Thank you!!
Hi Gina,
Thank you for your question. On this product page you can see our 6" x 24" Strips. We would recommend either the Hi-Visibility yellow or the Reflective strip. They both are a good solution. There's picture of both in the top right images section of this page.

Want to put down a 22ft long strip on the street edge of my side walk. I live in Central NJ. Will this hold up to weather conditions. Also can I paint it with Handicap blue latex paint?
Hi Cliff,
Thank you for your question. Yes, it will hold up to the winter. However, please be careful when shoveling not to rip the tape. Unfortunately, we don't have any experience painting over this product. We would recommend you test a small piece first.

What is the difference between 4" rolls X 60 ft of KSC Super Grip @ $63.18 vs 3M Safety Walk @ 147.35 and how do they perform outdoors in sunny and rainy weather on a pvc floor on a pontoon, Georgia weather? thanks
Hi Dale,
Thank you for your question. They are both very comparable. The main difference is price due to the 3M Brand name.

What do you recommend for two concrete exterior steps ?
Should be anti slip and contrasting colors.
Hi Tim,
Thank you for your question. Depending on the application either commercial or residential, we would recommend different options. For example, Black/Yellow or Red/White for commercial applications and maybe a solid color for residential.

We just installed brand new PVC railings at our American Legion Home. Yesterday it was raining and a senior who was attending the event said the railings were so slippery so almost fell. We do not want to ruin the look of the new railings, but we do not want anyone to get hurt. Stair tape seems like the grit is too high and we would get complaints about that. Suggestions??? Thx
Hi Gilbert,
Thank you for your question. Please take a look at product (A638). It's meant to walk with bare feet and still provide anti slip characteristics, which should be suitable for railings. Since it will be used quite frequently, we suggest the Primer and Edge Sealer (A405) as well. Here is a link to both, http://kofflersales.com/p/bath-shower-anti-slip-tape.asp?cid=23 http://kofflersales.com/p/3m-anti-slip-tape-sealer-and-primer.asp

APPLICATION IS ON LEXAN HATCHES OF SALT-WATER SAILBOAT.
KSC OR 3M SUPERGRIP? GRIT >60(HEAVIER)? 1-2" WHITE?
Hi Floyd,
Thank you for your question. Our KSC Super Grip is a 60 grit material. Unfortunately, we don't have any feedback pertaining to it's capabilities on Lexan hatches exposed to salt water. Our recommendation is always to test a section first to make sure the results are what you are looking for.

My treadmill mat is slippery. Sanding has helped somewhat but I wonder if this tape would work since the mat would constantly be in motion. Thank you.
Hi Kathy,
Thank you for your question. Yes, this may work, it has a peel and stick backing which would adhere to the floor, and the grit surface may provide enough friction to hold the mat in place. Please try a small area first to make sure it is what you need.
Thank you,

I'm interested In a light color non skid ( glow in the dark would be a plus!) easy on bare skin and feet, that will adhere to an inflatable dinghy made of Hypalon. Will be outdoors in direct Caribbean sun. Can you recommend a product ?
Also, I have hypalon glue.
Thank you, you have a great website.
Erika
Hi Erika,
Thank you for your question and your nice comments about our website. The only 2 products that we would recommenced would be our A638 or A6411. We are not sure about it's capabilities in this type of environment, and it's elasticity when you inflate and deflate the dinghy. Our recommendation is to request a sample of these 2 products by sending an e-mail to, samples@kofflersales.com.

Re: KSC Super Grip strips
I have sealed hardwood floors and stairs. I'd like to put the strips on the stairs and was wondering when the strip grit wears down in a few years, how hard is it to lift up the old strip and replace it with a new one? Thank you
Hi Rick,
Thank you for your question. The strips should last more then a few years. However, when it's time to lift and replace them you can uses an adhesive remover similar to the one we sell and you should have no problem. Here is the link for our adhesive remover. http://kofflersales.com/p/up16-ultrapwr-adhesive-remover.asp?itemid=62577

Hi, I have to handicap ramps leading to porches, all treated wood. Would you suggest a long vertical strip on tape down the ramp. Or, would it be better to place strip on each deck board across the width? Thank you for your time.
Hi BigDan,
Thank you for your question. We believe it would be best to place a strip on each deck board along the width, especially in case you have to replace a board down the road.

Hello I am looking at the KSC super grip and regular grip. I wanna know what type of material this is? Is this like a rubberized material or more like the grip tape on a skateboard? thanks!
Hi Will,
Thank you for your question. Yes, this material is very similar to skateboard grip tape. However, our A638 is made from PVC and is softer as it's designed for barefoot use. Here is the link for this product as well. http://kofflersales.com/p/bath-shower-anti-slip-tape.asp?cid=23

I live in Denver, CO and have a new, smooth surface, colored metal roof over our front porch that faces south.It slopes in a 15 degree angle away from the house, towards the south. It has a glossy surface. I need to put a 10 ft ladder on that metal roof to clean the gutters on the 2nd floor above it. I was going to order your clear, A636 Super Grip tape to apply to the roof so the rubber feet on the ladder would not slip. I was also going to get your A405 sealer to put on the edges of the tape.
Do you agree with this solution, or do you have another recommendation? Any suggestions on installing this tape like roughing up the smooth suface for better adhesion?
Thanks for you help!!
Hi Steve,
Thank you for your question. I would not recommend any of our tapes for use in your application. In addition, we really don't offer any products that would be a good solution for your needs.

I have a question about the KSC regular aqua tape #A636. What I'm applying it to is a PVC bird perch. 1. Will it apply to PVC?
2. How rough is it, texture wise, since a birds feet will be on it. I'm making a bird perch for the shower for my bird. Need 12" length x 5". I realize I'd have to buy the 30' length. It didn't say if it would stick to plastic or PVC.
Hi Marian,
Thank you for your question. Yes it will apply to PVS, as for the roughness, a human can walk barefoot on it and not hurt themselves. For a true barefoot anti slip tape for the bath and shower, please refer to this product link, which will also stick to PVC, http://kofflersales.com/p/bath-shower-anti-slip-tape.asp?cid=23

Good afternoon! We need to replace the grey non skid tape on the metal swim platform of our boat. Looking at the KSC super grip 1" tape in grey. Will this tape work or is it too abrasive for bare feet? The kids spend a lot of time jumping off the swim platform!
Hi Shayne,
Thank you for your question. Yes, we believe that is too abrasive. For wet barefoot areas we recommend our product, A638-Anti Slip Shower and Bath Tape. Here is the link to that product, http://kofflersales.com/p/bath-shower-anti-slip-tape.asp?cid=23

I just purchased the super grip tape. I am using it for the bully sidesteps and rear bumper on my truck that get slippery when wet. I should have asked before I purchased. Will these products work on metal and if so what is the best way to prep the metal for maximum adhesiveness? Thank you!
Hi Ric,
Thank you for your question. Yes, it will work on metal as long as the surface is smooth. If the surface isn't smooth and has a pattern in the metal, then you would need to buy our A637 Conformable product. Either way, make sure the surface is very clean and dry and install the product ONLY when the temperature and surface is less then 50 degrees F. before and during the installation.
Thank you,

What is the safety regulations in placing a self adhesive non-skid 6"x24" on a concrete steps that is 16" wide. How close to the steps nosing should it be placed? At the present it is placed 4" from the steps nosing. Please advise cause I have a safety issue with management/safety.
R/Mel
Hi Melvin,
Thank you for your question. Safety regulations are really dependent upon your facility as well as and State and federal regulations. So we really can't answer that question. However, this product adheres well to concrete. We would also recommend our Adhesive Edge Sealer for extra protection. http://kofflersales.com/p/3m-anti-slip-tape-sealer-and-primer.asp?cid=23
