With winter in full swing I was wondering what peps have done to keep from slipping off there nerf bars. I had some frost on mine and I stepped on them with wet boots and nearly killed myself.

I am looking at putting some anti slip material on them. Has anybody else done this?? I am think of skate board deck tape. Cant find anything in a spray can for anti slip, like spray paint with sand or something??

The skateboard deck should work well id try that out, not too expensive either/

I'm kinda thinking if ryno lining or line-xing my nerd bars.

I was thinking the same thing, but it might depend on the coating of the bars. If you have a powdercoated bar you should get a good adhesion with either the grit tape or a bedliner type product. I dont know how durable the tape would be though. A chrome finish might not take a bedliner coating though.

You might also want to search for "nerfbar step pads"

Ya, I'm not sure what finish you could line-x. I know the Crome ones I have wouldn't work so well. But I think it would look good and it takes care of rusting. As well as almost dying of slippery side bars

I was thinking that Ryno Lining or Line-X could also be slippery with the frost/wet shoe combo.?

The guy at the skate board shop recommened a deck paper called "Black Magic". He said that it has super sticky glue on it. I am only thinking of doing the Black step on the nerf bars, not the chrome portion.

Well I don't have the chrome ones, mine are the molded plastic one and I have used 'step antislip tape' and it's been over a year and still holding, I cut them into little strips to fit on top of the little ridges of the original steps.... Was a cheap fix for me!!

I'm not sure about that. We have all the boxes of our trucks line-x and it seems pretty grippy all year round. I guess if it froze up it might.

Here are the before and after pics of the Skate Board Grip Tape I put on the nerf bars steps.
