Default Where can I find the ' sandpaper tape' that API uses on their platforms?

Where can I find the rough/sandpaper tape that
comes with API treestands? I' ve purchased some
cheaper 16' ladder/climbing sticks, that I plan
to put up and leave for my dad, however the
top of the steps is smooth and becomes slippery
when wet. The rough tape used on the platforms
of all my API stands would be perfect to use on
the top of these steps....unfortunately, I can' t
find it anywhere and haven' t been able to get
much help from API. Dad just turned 71 and
the last thing I want is him slipping on a wet
step,the Lone Wolf sticks my brother and I use
are just too difficult at his age.

I wasn' t sure where to post this......so I thought
I' d check with my fellow bowhunters[:-].

I sure hope someone has a answer as to where
to find this tape[&:].

Any decent hardware store has it, I just bought some last week at Ace Hardware.
They had all different kinds of it.
Hope this helps[8D]

Just mix some sand with some paint and you' ll get better results. The tape is expensive and will fall off.

Any hardware store has it. People usually buy it and put it on like wood stairways in older peoples homes. It is great for what you will be using it for. he wont slip. Hope you find in.
