SlipDoctors Anti-Slip Bathtub and Shower Appliques, 28-Pack Circle Appliques. Increase Traction and Prevent Falls in The Tub (1.5”, Clear)

I read a lot of reviews on this before I purchased it. Everyone is right, those suckers are hard to get off of the backing paper. BUT if you have a bit of a fingernail, you'll be just fine. Curving the edge slightly helps. But you absolutely need a fingernail to get the backing off. I would say definitely lay them out before you start sticking them down. And I'd say also buy 2 packs. I bought 2, I have them maybe an inch or so apart. Maybe 2 inches. But it's perfect. Perfect spacing, no slipping. Works really well after I rinse mass amounts of conditioner from my curly hair. And they are virtually invisible!I made sure to use the majority of them toward the front of the tub where I usually stand. 2 packs don't cover all the way to the back, but also I don't typically stand over there. The point is, it covers the important parts!Also super important! You absolutely have to make sure that you rub it all over once you stick it down. Ya can't just stick and forget. That's how you get lifting once they get wet. Rub them, make sure there's no air bubbles. I also left them alone overnight/a whole day/as long as I could stand without a shower. Juuust in case.

They work great ! good friction on your feet ! They adhered really well ! Just seem really over pricedfor what it is !

The adhesive wasn't too strong. I thought it would be stronger. But it will work with the rest I have left that didn't fall off after the first bath.

Please excuse my grungy tub. It's an acrylic tub, over 30 years old that's lost it's luster. I never had a problem with a slippery tub before, since it was really hard to get this one real clean, so it always had a bit of grip on the floor. Then I discovered this awesome shower cleaner that's so easy to use, and works amazing. You just spray it on once a week, let it sit for 8 hours, wipe down and rinse. It doesn't require any real scrubbing, so I use it regularly and it works really well. (It's called Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner)So anyway, last week I almost fell in the shower and I decided it was time to get these installed (I bought them a year ago, but then life seriously happened). Installation was a breeze, once I figured out how to get the pattern right. My tub is kind of odd shaped and I wanted it to be symmetrical, so I outlined where I wanted them to be with painters tape and then created a template with a scrap piece of cardboard so they would be the same distance apart on each row. I thought others might find this helpful if they're OCD like me.I just put them on today, so I'll see how they hold up. They're stuck pretty good, there's a piece of lint under one, but I couldn't get it up even right away to remove it, so I'm hopeful they'll last at least until we replace this tub!

Once I got the hang of the install this went really fast. The directions say to lay individual circles down in the desired pattern with the protective backing still on, and then remove the backing and adhere to tub. But the individual circles don't pop out of the sheet easily; I had to use scissors to get each one started. And once the circles are removed from the sheet, it's not easy to get the backing off. You need to bend edge and pick-pick-pick until you can lift the backing off with a fingernail. (Don't be me, and do this sticky project the day after a manicure. Bye-bye nail polish!) The last few circles I did got dirty from all the sticky stuff on my nails, so be aware of this and wash your hands during install so you don't transfer old glue to new stickers; it will show once you've laid down the circle!As others have written, buy two sheets minimum. For me, two packs were enough to cover the central area of a standard-size bathtub but might be different depending on how close you place them. I've showered twice now and they look nearly invisible and work great!

The Slip Doctors Anti-Slip pads still slip. They provide some traction, but when the body wash reaches the tub floor the surface becomes a slip hazard. There not thick enough.

Love these, good quality and quantity, space them out approximately 3" from each other and stagger your lines. I was able to get 4 lines on base of my tub. No more slipping!! Thank you!

These are somewhat helpful. I wish the grip part was a bit higher/ thicker. I still feel like I could slip.
