it started as a nice saturday afternoon "tubby time" for my w t protector.
i could feel,then see a heel wear spot. i dried it, scrubbed again with isoprople alcohol and went to the barn for some "ice dam" sticky stuff. i had 2 kinds left over from roof jobs. i picked the rough textured over the smooth,maybe slippery stuff. cut a chunk to fit,heated both surfaces over the range. it really sticks.

my advice,do it now,do it new. at over $100 each piece i dont want a hole worn in!1

 

just out of curiousity, why didn't you make better cuts? Also, do you plan to add flashing later?

 

actually thats the last time ill see it that close!!!
i did cut off sharp corners,only because they tend to lift/peel.
i really dont care too much about out of sight stuff,i do like a nice wax job,bring on spring!!

 

pretty innovative, good job

 

the texture of the piece i picked was like sandpaper,probably so a roofer wouldnt slip on it.
wow, what a difference it makes in a vehicle. my right heel doesnt slip at all compared to my left,even wet with snow. a big safety issue as i have slipped and hit the gas b4 when just moving in the seat.
im going to add a piece on the left.
btw you really cant see it. at nite its dark,daytime its brite with sun or blinding snow outside so appearance is not an issue.
