This review is from: 3M 7751NA Safety-Walk Light Duty Tread - Clear 1-Inch-by-60-Foot Bulk Roll (Tools & Home Improvement)

I put this tape on a set of stained wooden steps leading to the upstairs of my house. To give some background, these steps look really nice, but they are super slippery and I have had one person fall partway down them and numerous close calls because the steps give no traction in socks and are too narrow in some areas to get much of your foot onto the actual step. This product looked promising to me because it is clear and was advertised as not being so abrasive as to irritate bare feet. I started off by applying a single strip across the steps about 1/2 inch away from the lip of the stair. This helped a lot, but the real improvement came when I applied a second strip onto the step about an inch inward from the first strip (so there is a 1 inch gap between strips). This really helped, and I haven't had any worries about going up and down the stairs ever since! They work great whether you're wearing socks, shoes, or barefoot. My only advice would be to clean the surface thoroughly as recommended by the manufacturer before applying. Not only will the bond be better, but believe me if you trap any dirt under this stuff you WILL see it after you put it on (made that mistake for the first step)

I've only had these on for about 1-2 months but so far they don't look too dirty and they're definitely not showing any signs of lifting. Highly recommended!

3.0 out of 5 stars Looks great, but low grip, December 31, 2009

We bought this tape for a wooden staircase to enhance the grip.
We chose light-duty so it would not feel too harsh on bare feet - and indeed it isn't. However that was probably a mistake, as it also means lower grip. While increasing the safety of the stairs, I would choose differently and go with higher duty and higher grip.
The clear tape provides a very good look, almost invisible, so it was great on the wood. Clear color was definitely a good choice.
Lastly, the 1-inch width is very good; it allows you to put two slightly separated strips on each step (e.g. two inch apart), and get a more effective grip area.

The tread on this clear 3M tape is so low profile that it slid smoothly across both skin and fabric when I tested it. Am returning it to Amazon for a refund.
