Step 5 · Prepare Surface for Selected Solution

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the selected anti-slip product. For most applications, this involves thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove dirt, grease, and debris. If applying tape or treads, the surface must be completely dry. For coatings, you might need to degrease, acid etch (for concrete), or sand the surface to ensure proper adhesion. Priming may be necessary for certain materials or coatings. For example, if applying grip tape to a painted surface, ensure the paint is sound and clean; if the paint is peeling, it must be removed and the surface treated accordingly.
