    Traction Tape

    I'm looking for traction tape options for the ramp and interior of my trailer.

    The widest that I've been able to find is 6".

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks!

    What's the finish on the ramp now? You could get some fine sand and mix it in with some paint and then paint it.

    I can get a photo of mine but I did strips side to side at 12" intervals and it works good. Just be careful smoothing the strips on or you will be a bloody mess real fast .... or so I have heard

    Just paint the ramp and scatter some play sand on it. Worked well on mine.
    Amateurs practices until they get it right. A professional practices until they can't get it wrong.

    The ramp, floor, and walls are all marine-grade plywood.

    I wasn't planning on painting anything, just putting some grip tape down.

    I had looked into some rubber diamond-plate to cover the entire floor, but it isn't recommended for gasoline or oil spills. Even though I won't be towing any Harley's, why take the chance?
