Whats the best thing to put on a set of home made pedals to make them SVA "anti-slip" compliant - appologies if this post should be in the SVA section. Cheers.
MAC#1 have sticky back grippy stuff.
stick on shoe soles from woolworths
very locost
80 grit wet n dry
some none slip stuff people put on skate boards
Grip tape works well but it will put holes in your racing boots pretty quick . Street shoes should be fine though.
I went into the local skateboard / snowboard emporium and asked for some grip tape or deck tape. The young girl working there smiled brightly and said
"Of course - is it for your son?". I told her it was for me and she looked a bit taken aback, then she recovered her composure and said
"Cool!!". I think she had an image in her head of me down at the nearest half-pipe. As a result they gave me the tape for free. I
didn't tell them what it was for.
Anyway - here are the finished pedals.
Cheers,

80 grit and a blob of glue
another vote hear for Skateboard grip tape, cheap and easy to find, try ebay

I use skateboard grip tape. The only problem is the adhesive gets soft when things get a bit hot and the grip tape moves or comes off.
I would guess 3M do a product at big cost!

Araldite John!
I used MAC#1 supplied Apache helicopter running board/access step grip tape.
Beat that.
Skateboard tape would probably do the same job but doesnt quite have the prestige
I used the Mk2 Apache full attack Sports Lightweight grip tape
Alternative solutions
Make the pedals to fit standard rubbers.
Pop rivet on some alloy diamond tread plate.
Go to halfrauds and ask to see what pedal rubbers () they have.
I belive transit rubbers fit the floor pedal box, and then use the grip tape for the acc pedal
