What material do you put on the optional steps to make them non-skid? I

assume wing walk material. If so, anyone have a source for a small piece? I

ordered the RV wing walks from Van's so I don't have any extra material.

 You can order the stick-on stuff by the foot, or paint from the usual suspects (Spruce/Wicks/etc.)  You could also investigate Lowes Depot or Wallyworld for non-skid strips for tubs & showers.  I did something a bit different for my plane if you are looking to do it during painting:

Try the Aviation Department of your local Home Despot or Lowes. Tape for 

stair treads. Another option would be grip tape for skate boards.

If you have Van's wingwalks, they feature "push out" letters that spell 

RV6,7,etc, just use that material for your steps.

Don,

        Go to a boat supply store.  They sell non-skid material in

different widths.  It should be available in white or black.   I think I

will use the material on my wings.  I used it on my first build.  I did

four or five strips in the area where you should step.  It is trimmed

with a scissor.  It worked very well and stayed put.
