Race Deck Free Flow Insanely Slippery?!!?!!

[FinishingTouchA]

So I just got half my floor put in and first impression is it looks amazing... Second impression: I've nearly killed myself several times. These tiles are so slick when wet that it's hard to stand still. Anyone else have this issue?

I have the regular RD flooring. Not very slippery.

They get filthy. I have my guys steam the tiles every few days.

Wonder if they have a anti slip clear coat that you can apply

[FUNX650]

It is possible that the skivvy on the
tile-style, may not always hold true:

-The "Free-Flow" design is supposed to
have very good anti-slip surfaces.

-The "Coined" design is the one that
can sometimes be very slippery.

Scrubbing with apc full strength should help

Huh, I've heard that they're a very popular choice for detail shops, so that's quite surprising. Maybe it's got a coating or something that will wear off after a few days or weeks. Stay safe man!

[parttimer]

I'm guessing maybe a mold release agent is still on them, hopefully time or a good cleaning will get this resolved for you

[StephenK]

I am sure you have already thought of this but contact the seller/manufacturer

Im sure its just a coating/mold release. Steam them and apc them and should be good!

Just finished the rest of the floor, I think I'll put some 100 grit sandpaper on my flex and scuff the whole floor.

Might do 300, I'll do a test spot by hand before going to town on 700 sq ft of race deck flooring haha
