Slip-Safe Bath Spots | Ocean Friends

What surfaces can I stick Slip-Safe Spots to?

Slip-Safe spots stick to smooth surfaces like your bath, shower tray and some tiles. Run your fingers across the surface in mind - if it feels as smooth as a counter top or a window, Slip-Safe spots will stick well. They're not suitable for refinished, painted, varnished or non-smooth surfaces. Do not use in cast iron enamel baths.

What about baths and showers with bumpy, raised bits?

You can cut your slips safe spots to fit around bumps or the plug hole. Do not place fully or partly over raised bumps as you won't get a full seal of the adhesive and water will sneak underneath.

How do I remove them?

We recommended pouring boiling water on your spots, leaving them a little while for the adhesive to melt, then peeling off. Be careful to pull up the adhesive at the same time as the high friction material. If you're left with any residue, use a sticky stuff remover like de-solv-it which can be purchased from most supermarkets or hardware stores.

Are these suitable for rental properties?

Yes! We have used them in two rental properties to date. They don't last forever and can be fully removed.

How long do they last?

Nothing last's forever and the longevity of your spots depends on how well you stick them initially and how they're used on a day to day basis.

How do I clean my bath/shower/floor when Slip-Safe Spots are installed?

Just clean as usual. Your spots will stay in place.

EASY TO INSTALL: Peel the backing off each sticker and apply to your bath, shower or tiles. Ensure that the surfaces are completely dry and free of any chemicals, fluff or dust for the best stick. Leave for 24hours before submerging. Watch our how-to video here: https://bit.ly/slipsafespotshowto

Please note, it is important to let product stand for 24 hours before using.

EASY TO CLEAN: With a low profile and an super-strong adhesive, you can clean right over the top of the treads with standard household cleaners allowing you to keep your tub safe and squeaky clean (if you can be bothered!).

REMOVES CLEANLY: If you need to remove the Slip-Safe Spots, you can do so without worrying about damaging the tub surface. They remove cleanly leaving no damage or residue to clean up.

Not for use on refinished, painted, varnished or non-smooth surfaces.

It's important to ALWAYS closely supervise children when they're bathing to prevent fatal accidents.

Never leave your child unattended in the bath, even for a moment.
