The black no slip material on my Kwickees is worn out. Has anyone found something good to redo them with? Something with really good no-slip qualities and very durable.

Rich.....I went with 1/8" polished aluminum Diamond plate. Still looks great after 10 years.

Try Home Depot, ask for the non-slip tread tap for ladders/steps.

I am assuming that this polished aluminum diamond plate is non-slip but want to ask you if I'm assuming correctly. Thank you.

This Diamond plate is non skid and is available at Lowes. I attached it with pop rivets.

Dave,

That's a GREAT looking fix. Hell, I'd call it an upgrade. I have found that spraying 303 on the non-skid refreshes it's appearance, but of course won't renew the non-skid properties. I'm filing this in my "projects" folder for the day when mine need re-doing! Thanks for the idea.
