Non slip patches

Hi all, I'd like to put non slip/ wear patches on my hypalon tubes. Is this a diy job? Where could I purchase them?
Thanks

I'd do some homework/take some advice...not a hard job but easy to fck up!
Marking out ....cleaning...roughing up the area....and most importantly proper curing times for glue!..essential if you want to do it right.....and first time!

Yes I was thinking that. I've asked for a quotation and I'm awaiting a reply. Can you tell me how lettering is applied to the tubes. Painted on or fabric glued on?

By far the best is to have a pro company make Hyperlon one's and Glue on appropriately...like the Wear a Patches... I know Henshaws (amongst others) can now make a computer printout/cutout any size/name/design/colour/ and Font you may wish
Don't paint looks Crap ...Stick on ones come off.
