Default quad cab fold flat floor - make nonskid?

The fold out flat floor under my back seat is painted metal and very slippery. Anything I set on it ends up sliding all around during turns.

Any ideas on what I can put on it to make it non-skid?

Mine Carpeted, came factory on 06. is yours used?

if you dont want to carpet it yourself. I would go by some aerosol cans of rubberised undercoating (like for your inner fenders) or truck bed liner. take them out and spray them.

on 06 and newer they came carpeted. I have an 05 and like Steveh326 they are painted metal. I went to Wal-Mart and bought the nonslip mat. It comes in a roll and in various colors. It is in housewares (kitchen stuff) It was designed as a non-slip shelf/drawer liner. It looks like small circles connected in a mesh formation. I cut the material to shape and then cut small slits in the middle and used strips of velcro to keep it from moving when opend and closed. it works great...and nothing slips!

Here is a web search for the stuff.... this is from Amazon.com and ACE hardware: (LINK)

Hope this helps.

You know there's a guy who posts on here on a regular basis. His famous word are "It does us no good if we don't have pics".
It certainly applies here.

There is also non slip tape that it like sand paper. Here is a link from a quick search. I think Lowes sells it.

You could also try one of those trim to fit bed liners, might be more expensive than you want, but seems to me it would hold up real well inside the truck if it's made for the bed.

Hemiriden is right - I use that stuff everywhere. It can be found at Lowe's too, in the kitchen accessories area.
