3M Safety-Walk Slip Resistant Tape, 1 in x 15 ft, Anti Slip Clear Tape, Ideal For Slippery & Wet Conditions, Self-Adhesive Backing, Quick & Easy Application, Durable & Long-Lasting (220C-R1X180)

Fantastic product. I had originally tried to use some worthless stuff that I purchased from Home Depot that lasted about a month before peeling off and leaving an adhesive mess in its wake. I was very hesitant to try another one of these products because I figured the same would happen. I've had this stuff on for 3 months now and it has show no signs of lift, slide or peel. Moreover, I'm using this on a textured (wavy crisscross pattern) fiberglass tub... I had figured that it was this pattern/material that was the problem with the original stuff I bought, but this tape has proven that theory wrong. I'm very impressed with product. As others have mentioned, however, the staple in the packaging is off putting. I simply trimmed around those holes left by the staples, which means the strips that I used were ~5" long. While not ideal, it works very well and looks great. UPDATE: The first of these treads started picking up after about 6 months in the highest traffic spot on the tub... more started peeling off another year later and just this past weekend, I pulled up all of the pieces that I put down over 2 1/2 years ago and replaced them. The adhesion in the lighter traffic portions of the tub was still terrific, but it pulled up without leaving any mess. I had used what was leftover from my original purchase and I still have about 2 feet of material left. This is a shower that usually gets used 4x per day... and is very slick without any tread or mat... so I'd say this purchase was very well worth it.

I’ve used a bath mat for years – the kind with all the suction cups on the bottom – and it’s worked great. But it must be put down and taken up for each shower, otherwise it tends to develop mold and gather gunk on the bottom. A friend gave me a roll of these 3M adhesive strips a few months ago because she said that it worked so well for her. I was a little skeptical about it staying put over time, but I figured that I’d give it a try. I was actually pleasantly surprised. It was super simple to use – I just cleaned and dried my tub (semi-smooth acrylic), cut the strips to size, peeled off the backing, and stuck them to my tub. They stick pretty firmly when they make contact so you’ll want to have all of your strips laid out how you want them before you start sticking. We’ve used the shower and/or tub on a daily basis for the past several months and the strips are still holding firm. I laid the strips about six inches apart the short way across the tub. The rough surface keeps my feet from slipping, but it’s not so rough as to be uncomfortable. They worked so well that I just bought another roll so I can lay them in our guest shower. This is an effective but inexpensive fix to a slippery tub and I'm really glad I found them.

We have a fiberglass shower and tub. Theses straips work great in both. We are getting older and being in a slippery shower can really be unsafe. Now we have the straps on the floor and we feel alot safer. Easy to use, measure, cut, and stick on the floor of a clean shower or tub.

If people say it didn't work, they must not have installed it correctly. The install was very easy; I didn't use any extra adhesive but I did trim the corners to be rounded. I cleaned & dried the tub real well. I used a scraper (like a credit card) to press strips down. I don't remember if it said to let it cure for so many hours or days, but if it did, than I followed instructions. Those strips NEVER MOVED or CAME UP! I moved from that house about 7 years from when I installed them & they still were in perfect condition. I highly recommend!

Wow, it's held up great, a solid 3M commercial grade product. And this tub gets used a lot! A nice level of grip, but not too much for bare feet. 1" wide, clear strips in a chocolate colored tub, and it doesn't look obnoxious. Get your surface super clean. I don't see why it wouldn't last another 10 years.

Not terribly grippy. Kinda fiddly to install on shower floor. Had to do it twice. Next time? Decals.

I put this product in our tub about 6 weeks ago. At first, I was skeptical it would work as the surface is not a rough as I had expected. After installation, it works great. No more slippery tub. A couple of things I did in installation may help some one else. First I Laid out a pattern with masking tape. When satisfied with pattern, I made a drawing and took measurements as a guide. Then I cut the strips to length and removed the masking tape. The strips have square corners, so I rounded the corners (used a 3/4" pvc pipe coupler to get the radius). I did not want any corners that may be easy to catch and peel off. It was somewhat labor intensive but worth it. Cleaned the tub with liquid dish soap (didn't want to use anything that might leave a powdery residue). After the tub dried, I used Isopropyl alcohol to wipe down the tub. It only takes a few minutes to dry. Then applied the strips as instructed. To make sure there was good contact between the tub and the strips, I rolled the strips with a wallpaper seam roller. The tub is used daily for showers and a couple of times a week for baths. So far the product has performed flawlessly.

Was afraid that they wouldn't hold, they have been in for at least 2 months and many showers and cleanings and there is no sign of them coming loose around the edges. Make sure the area to be installed is totally clean and I used rubbing alcohol to clean the area well and let dry completely before installing strips. We didn't use the shower for 48 hrs after installing, I don't remember the instructions saying anything about setting time - that was our choice. They were easy to install and look good and clean easily.

Purchased this 3M safety walk tub and shower tread clear tape for the in-laws shower floor. Being clear it is not in your face. It has increased the confidence level of my in-laws as they are not as concerned about slipping in the shower as they were before fitment of the tape. Being a 3M product the quality is good however you have to ensure the tiles are scrupulously clean and the corners of the tape are rounded to ensure adhesion.

I place it in our bathroom, after that i took a shower, it mentioned to be water proof but it is not, i slipped and hurt my self. Perhaps, it needs time for the adhesive to dry

I was dubious about how well this would work, given the hot and wet environment of a bath base. But it seems to be holding up well so far, and has made the base far less slippery. I followed the installation instructions for pre-cleaning the surface. It's not cheap per metre -- may need two rolls to get decent coverage on a bath -- but seems to pay off in terms of quality.

Not any better than similar products on T£MU. Comes off within a week. Even after following instructions on packaging.

Excellent that it can be cut to any length and you can create any linear pattern with it. It's clear (well, translucent), but works very well at preventing slips in the tub. The amount provided on the roll is plenty to properly cover a standard tub. It's been there for several months of showers and cleanings and is not lifting off in any way. Recommended for safety.
