	Could you tell me about the Safe Solution^® and how it works?
	Safe Solution^® is an invisible non-coating, micro-etch application for hard mineral surfaces such as ceramic or porcelain tile, cement, steel enameled bathtubs, designed to create an anti-slip surface. The Safe Solution^® creates invisible, microscopic channels that disperse oils and water from underfoot instead of hydroplaning that normally occurs. RETURN TO TOP

	Will it change the appearance of a bathtub or ceramic tile?
	At first, you may notice a slight haze, which is normal. After time and with regular use, the haze will eventually fade away, the colour will remain the same. RETURN TO TOP

	How long does it take to apply?
	Overall it will take you approximately 10 minutes to complete the application and you can use your bathtub or shower immediately. For tile floors, they are ready to walk on immediately following the treatment process. RETURN TO TOP

	How long will it last?
	Provided you do not use abrasive cleansers or cleaners that leave a film, the Safe Solution^® will last indefinitely. RETURN TO TOP

	Is there a guarantee?
	Yes, if you use our follow up Clean Step™ multi-purpose cleaner, we will guarantee your bathtub or shower stall will remain Anti-Slip for minimum three years. RETURN TO TOP

	Why should I use your cleaner?
	We cannot regulate or recommend other cleaners that you may use. However, we know our Clean Step™ cleaner is a superior formulation. It will not interfere with the benefits of your treated bathtub or shower and that's the reason we can offer this guarantee. RETURN TO TOP

	How do I get your cleaner?
	When you purchase and receive your Safe Solution^® Anti-Slip D.I.Y. Kit, you will notice a free trial bottle of the Clean Step™ multi-purpose cleaner included inside the package. A coupon to order the Clean Step™ is also enclosed. RETURN TO TOP

	Does the Safe Solution^® work on acrylic/fiberglass bathtubs?
	Porcelain and Steel/Enameled tubs respond extremely well to the Safe Solution^® treatment. Fiberglass or acrylic type tubs cannot be treated. Presently, the Safe Solution^® does not work on these types of surfaces. However, we are actively developing a product that will. Keep watching this website for that product. RETURN TO TOP

	Is Safe Solution^® difficult to apply?
	The application is a simple three-step process with clear instructions to follow on all product labels in both English and French. Everything you need is included in the Do-It-Yourself kit. RETURN TO TOP

	Is Safe Solution^® safe for the environment?
	Safe Solution^® is safe and environmentally friendly. We make it safer by including a Neutralizer that converts the remaining residue making it biodegradable and non-hazardous. RETURN TO TOP
