Trailer fender grip tape? Non-skid pads

[Brian B]

I'm looking for the Mastercraft logo non skid tape for a double axle trailer. Apparently Mastercraft has discontinued making these.....

Anyone know where I can find a pair?

Call Seadek, search for my thread where I asked the same question.

Actually no. It's nothing more than grip tape, with Mastercraft cut out. Anyone know where to get replacements?

[CantRepeat]

I got them Rambo Marine. You can try BAWS as well.

What year is your trailer? I couldn't find any and made a set yesterday. It was pretty easy and they came out looking pretty sharp. I'll post a photo later or if interested you can pm me and I will give you the details.

^ Please, I'd love to see them. If I can get the Mastercraft file in DFX I can get the tape myself and have it cut out on a laser table...... Anyone interested in something custom? Perhaps the name of the boat or something?

My trailer is a 2001

Dang, that looks awesome. If my trailer had the grip tape on it, I'd snap those up.

Finding the tape was the hard part. My decals are on a single axle trailer and are 3 on each fender: a 9" x 33", 9" x 6", and 9" x 22". I would have loved to have them cut out on a laser table, but I just traced the old pattern on the new and cut carefully. I used a level for a straight edge and they came out remarkably well. Getting them on will be the trick.

It looks like they were originally installed with some extra glue or even some silicone. Can anyone confirm this? I was thinking of using some 3M spray adhesive so it doesn't peel up.

I bought this on eBay and it's the same stuff as the OEM grip tape:

I didn't attempt to cut out the "MasterCraft" though. I just used the existing stuff as a template and cut out the perimeter.

Attached is a poor photo of the fender grip tape which I cut/made yesterday. Very close to OEM, but probably not a dead on as the grip tape available in the post above. It is a lot closer to original than it looks in the pic.

I need them as well.

CantRepeat, are yours the same as what BrianB is looking for? If so, I guess I should call Rambo.

[Brian B]

No luck at Rambo. Any other places to look?

Brian, I spent a long time looking all over the web for those about four months ago and could not find them anywhere. Rambo was the last place that had any and they sold out. I am now trying to find some tape that is not so expensive and cut them my self. The tape can be real costly.

When you find the right tape, get me some and I'll have the logos cut out perfectly on a laser table here in AZ!

Anyone else need these?

When you find the right tape..
The stuff I posted earlier is the right tape. I've actually bought some and it's just like the OEM rubbery stuff.

I assume you are talking about the ones on the fenders in this photo? When I got mine they were the last ones in the local MC shop.Have you tried a skateboard shop? The site below also has some grip tape that may work. But you would have to cut it out yourselves or maybe they could reproduce it?

count me in for this style logo for my 1999 single axle
trailer

I was also thinking skateboard shop. Deck tape.

That stuff is really harsh on bare feet and especially on leg hair. I put some on my jeep door sills and it would rip hair out of my legs frequently.

[Brian B]

Here's the deal. Whatever tape we use, the adhesive has to be great. The last thing you want happening in the tape coming up and slapping the side of your boat on the highway. This happened to me last summer and I was lucky to notice immediately......

I cleaned the fenders with acetone before installing them and mine have been fine for 3 years.

Used to be easy to find. And cheap, too. I remember paying $11 for a set about 8 years ago.
