Glow Grip Stair Tape

What this tape is

Glow Grip Stair Tape is a roll of anti-slip tape made with an abrasive high-friction surface and an adhesive backing. The black tape has a glow-in-the-dark stripe that runs along its length, so the edge of each step stays visible in low light.

It is built for stair steps indoors and outdoors. Use it on bare wood, painted steps, concrete, or metal. The abrasive top gives shoes and bare feet more grip than a smooth stair surface alone.

This listing is for the tape only. Each order includes 1 roll of tape.

Size and options

There is one size and one color for this tape. The options below are the ones you pick at checkout.

One roll covers 16.4 ft (5 m) of step edge when applied as a single strip. Measure the width of your steps and the number of steps before you order so you know how many rolls you need.

Where to use it

Stair nosing and anti-slip tape both work at the front edge of a step, where feet land first. This tape is made for that same spot.

• Indoor stairs: basement steps, attic stairs, and the main staircase.
• Outdoor stairs: porch steps, deck stairs, and garage entry steps.
• Other spots: a short run of tape can also mark a single step or a small landing edge.

The glow-in-the-dark stripe helps in dim areas such as a basement stairwell or an unlit porch. Charge it with normal room or daylight, then it glows after the lights go out.

How to apply it

1. Clean the step. Remove dust, grease, and loose paint from the surface where the tape will sit.
2. Let the surface dry fully. Tape sticks best to a dry, clean step.
3. Cut the tape to length with scissors or a utility knife.
4. Peel the backing and press the tape down at the front edge of the step.
5. Press firmly along the whole strip, then walk on it.

For outdoor steps, apply the tape in dry weather and give it time to bond before heavy use. If a step has a rounded or very uneven edge, press the tape down in small sections so it follows the shape.

Care and upkeep

Wipe the tape with a damp cloth or a mild household cleaner when it looks dirty. A clean abrasive surface keeps its grip. Avoid oil-based cleaners and wax, which can leave a slippery film on the tape.

Check the edges of the tape now and then. If a corner lifts, press it back down. Replace the strip when the abrasive surface wears smooth or the glow stripe no longer shows.
