3MTM Safety-WalkTM Slip Resistant Tapes and Treads Installation Process

 
   
 

Clean the area with soap and water to remove any grease or dirt. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.

For porous surfaces (like unpainted wood or concrete), apply 3MTM Safety-WalkTM Primer with a brush on the exact area where the 3MTM Safety-WalkTM Slip-resistant tape is to be placed. Allow primer to dry.

Peel one end of the Safety-Walk product backing and place it in the appropriate area. Try not to touch the adhesive.

 
   
Apply the remaining Safety-Walk product by gradually pulling the liner and pressing in place. Use a small rubber roller to help provide a firm bond. For 3MTM Safety-WalkTM Conformable Treads only, use a rubber mallet to conform the Safety-Walk slip-resistant product to the irregular surface. For wet areas, 3MTM Safety-WalkTM Edge Sealing Compound on the edge of the Safet-Walk slip resistant product, making sure that the sealer bead cover the edge of both the tread and the floor. After the edge sealer dries (typically 30 minutes), the area is ready for use.
