The following factors need to be considered when selecting a Tread Tape;

•  Is your Non Slip Tape project Indoors or Outdoors? Do you need a UV resistant Anti Slip Tape?
•  Is your Tread / Grip Tape project being applied to a smooth or rough / textured surface ? Chequer Plate?
•  Will your Anti Slip Tape project be exposed to water, moisture, or be submerged? 
•  What type of lighting is the area that your Non-Slip / Tread Tape is being applied? 
•  Is the area where Anti Slip Grip tape being applied, going to exposed to Chemicals, Oily Surfaces, Heavy Foot Traffic, High Dirt areas ?
•  What  Non Slip Grip Tape colours & sizes do you need ? Is a custom size or die cut size of Anti Slip Grip Tape required?
•  What Is the surface you are applying Slip Resistant Tape to? If Slip Resistant Tape is being applied to a wooden surface,concrete surface,brick surface, any surface with loose particles, a sealant needs to applied first to ensure that the non slip tape doesn't just adhere to the particles on the surface of the substrate your Anti Slip Tape is being applied too.

Here's A Quick Tip To Make Anti Slip Tape Last Longer;

• Always apply Non Slip - Anti-Slip Tape with rounded corners. This stops the corners from getting scuffed & lifting easily as they would if they had a corner / point at each edge. If you are cutting the tape off a roll, just use your scissors, or knife to cut the corners round. 
• Use 3M's edge sealant (edge sealing compound) which will help protect the perimeter of tape applied from dust, dirt or water penetrating under the tape causing it to start lifting off the surface it has been applied to.
