roofing felt for bike ramp?

[Ribenapigeon]

Is roofing felt allright to use as a grippy surface for a ramp?

Cheers.

The gritty surface will wear off very quickly and the felt will rip easily.

You are better off with ant-slip paint or strips of anti-slip tape.

Is it a metal, cement, masonry wood ramp?
Chicken wire is a fix if you can be arsed stapling it onto a wooden ramp.
The anti-slip method is another.

Ghetto is to paint with exterior gloss.
Sprinkle some coarse sand over the wet surface.
When it dries over paint the sand and paint.
A couple of coats may be needed to bond the sand in place.
You can repair it any time then.

For a more posher look, mask off the border before putting down the sand. Looks like a pro did it.
The anti-slip tape can be expensive.

I had anti slip tape but the stuffs expensive and has mostly come off over the last two years. Its a wood ramp.

The ghetto idea sounds good. I might do a test bit tonight. Thanks.

You can buy anti slip paint like what another poster said you just mix the grippy sand stuff into the tin and layer it on, no need for 2nd coats
