This product arrived as described . These rubber rolls looked great to be cut to fit our stair tread area. The install is to be used on metal spiral stair treads , a difficult intensive cut to fit with any covering due to the angles of the steps . I have no problem with the material and the look, but I do have a problem with getting the rubber rolls to stay in place. There were no instructions, or any help when we ordered, we did ask. Thinking there would be some info upon arrival of the roll, there was not. I contacted a local flooring supplier, who sold me a liquid, gooey white product that would not stay in place, it ran everywhere. I returned this inferior product. We have tried contact cement, no help there ether,the rubber will not stick to metal it seems.I also noticed the product comes painted, it is not a fixed color which could be the problem, the paint separates from the rubber quite easily. Here we sit, with a product that looks nice, but can not be used as intended .I am thinking of using it on the concrete floor next, but at this point, considering the experience already,would not use the product anywhere for fear of it curling up. There must be an answer, still searching for some help as to how this product can stay flat when installed.
