When I went out today one of my grip tape strips came off my trailer. Where do I get more?
 
I replaced mine with Attwood from Walmart. However not an exact match and I had to put the two pieces end to end so it was the same length as the one that came off.
 
Instead of grip tape, why not roll on some Herculiner? You'll never have to worry about it coming off again. That stuff is awesome.
 
I've seen strips of grip tape at hardware stores before. Personally I like using aluminum diamond plate.
 
I have restored 3 Jeeps, and did the entire tub on all 3 of them with the herculiner and it was fantastic. I also used it on the engine cover of my Sea-Doo which was fully sun exposed for 5 seasons.
 
Skateboard tape?

That's what I did.. On top of the fenders as well.
 
Plus it gives you a cool" looks like water spray" reflection on the hull when trailered.

I just sprayed truck bed paint (Herculiner?) on my trailer and added some hydro turf where the non skid used to be.
