I am getting to the point where I should respray my interior in the next few days. In the luggage area from the factory, there was like those no slide strips on top of the paint.
Is there anything like that available now to get it back to looking original?
tip or technique? etc
thanks

I seem to recall a thread that Everett participated in that discussed this. I did a search and came up empty. Then I did a search for post with Everett...  well he just posts on too many threads. I do remember photos and places discussed to find it.
Sorry that I'm not a lot of help.

I recently removed my tar-strips with laquer thinner, a screwdriver and a
some 0000 steel wool. It was hard...but worth it.

Yeah tar-strips. That's what it was, kinda like roofing paper.

yeah that stuff was a bitch to get off,
I was giving it some thought and though incorrect, skateboard grip tape would look pretty good, and be a hell of alot easier to remove if ever decided
