The Heskins range of anti-slip tapes is an effective and stylish way to reassure poolgoers about their safety. Whether you’re installing a home pool or a public recreational facility, safety is everything. Slippery pool tiles, wet surfaces, and wet floors are a constant hazard, but with the right anti-slip tape for pools, you can reduce this risk without compromising comfort or appearance.

To get the most out of your pool anti-slip tape, knowing how to use it correctly will significantly extend the life of your product and ease the stress of creating the pool of your dreams. This blog will guide you through the best practices for using anti-slip tape in wet areas like pools. Let’s get started.

What will I need?

Before we even think about making your pool slip-free, we first need to choose the right non-abrasive grip tape for the job. Of all 72 of our tapes, which one best suits our purposes?

Aqua Safe anti-slip tape is gentle on skin and clothing, leaves no grit residue unlike its abrasive counterparts, is customizable (print and cut), and, most importantly, is waterproof. Specifically designed for this use, Aqua Safe is exactly the tape you need for this context.

Here’s everything you’ll need:

Heskins Aqua Safe Anti-Slip Tape is waterproof, non-abrasive, and comfortable underfoot.

Cleaning equipment includes brushes and Heskins IPA surface cleaner for residue-free preparation.

Edge Fix to prevent edge lifting, especially in wet and congested areas

Although the surface is waterproof, the adhesive itself is not waterproof during use. Therefore, the pool must be dry and clear before applying the tape. This way, the adhesive will adhere more firmly to the surface, and you won’t have to worry about replacing the tape for years.

Surface preparation

You’ll notice a major theme in this post: longevity and performance. The more careful you prepare, the longer your tape will last.

Start by scrubbing everything thoroughly. Removing dirt, dust, and debris will prevent any bumps or blemishes from forming under the tape. Use IPA Surface Cleaner to remove stains, grease, bacteria, and other contaminants. It dries in seconds and leaves no residue, allowing you to move directly to installation.

Put the tape

Ensure the tape is properly aligned and in the desired location. Whether for stairs or a pool surround, a neat and tidy arrangement improves safety and appearance. Once you’re satisfied with the location, remove the backing and place it on the desired surface.

Over time, the edges may lift. To prevent this, use Edge Fix along the sides of the tape to hold them in place.

We’re almost done applying the tape to the pool area. The final step is to use a seam roller to press the tape firmly and eliminate any air bubbles. This ensures a tight bond to the surface. Allow the pool tape to dry for 12 to 24 hours before filling it. It may be tempting to jump right in, but this window allows the adhesive to fully set and provide maximum stability.

What next?

Now you’re ready to enjoy the fruits of your labor, and thank you for choosing us as your ideal anti-slip solution. When it comes to safety, there’s no such thing as too much preparation, and we’re always here to help.

So far, we’ve mentioned two main uses for tape around pools: edges and stairs. But that’s just the beginning.

You can also enhance poolside safety with handrail grip tape for added security on the handrails, and use non-slip pool floor markers to identify one-way systems or swim lanes, which can be fully customized to reflect your brand.
