Misr, I have the small tear drops they use on the trailer on the nose of my boat, actually I have three of them. I have two turned tip to tip to make a nice step area up front, and one makes a perfect non skid grip on my MG TM foot. All three have been in place for a year now, I use the heck out of the step pads on the trailer, I assure you its seen speeds over 70 LOL. Didnt you just get one scratched buffed out? They happen, you could always ask folks not to step on the gel, if they do let them know youll return the favor on the hood of their truck when you get back to the parking lot. That seems to get folks attention! I hear those little blue pills may help get some reach over the edge?
