SULOFRI-SHEET-3M-06x12 is a sheet of the exact same material we use for our SULOFRI super-low friction soles, for dancing outdoors on concrete and asphalt. The sheet is of Size 6 in x 12 in (152 mm x 304 mm) with a thickness of 0.03". SULOFRI-SHEET-3M-08x10 can be cut with household scissors or utility knives. We cut our SULOFRI soles products from these exact same sheets.
SULOFRI-SHEET-3M comes with industrial-strength adhesive backing. After cutting the sheet, just peel of the protective liner of your cut piece and stick the piece to your shoe sole. The adhesive backing will stick securely to leather or suede-soled shoes and to most natural rubber-soled shoes. The adhesive will stick less securely to shoe soles with an aggressive or knobby profile, that is, soles that don't offer much surface area to stick to.
Dancing with SULOFRI soles
SULOFRI soles allow dancers to pivot with ease on extremely
high-friction dance floors such as concrete and asphalt. SULOFRI soles offer much less resistance to pivoting and
linear sliding than our standard low-friction products. Out of more than 20 materials we tested, SULOFRI is the only material that works real well on concrete and asphalt. Indeed, on those difficult
surfaces pivoting is just as easy as it is with suede soles on
well-maintained wood floors. However, the super-low-friction material is
soft and wears out very quickly on those abrasive surfaces. For
example, active dancers can wear out their super-low-friction components
in as little as 4-6 hours of dancing on rough concrete (the actual wear rate
depends strongly on surface, dance style, and the dancer's weight).
Included: One sheet of SULOFRI ultra-low friction material with adhesive backing.

Warnings:
1. SULOFRI is intended solely for dancing outdoors, on concrete and asphalt. Never walk or dance with SULOFRI soles on any other surface, as it is extremely slippery. Even on concrete and asphalt, SULOFRI is so slippery that you should avoid walking as much as possible.
2. SULOFRI material has ideal friction properties for dancing on concrete and asphalt. Unfortunately, it is expensive and it wears down very quickly. This shouldn't be too surprising, though: concrete and asphalt are very abrasive surfaces, almost like sand paper. One might ask why rubber soles don't wear down as quickly. It's because they grip instead of slide. Dancers, however, like to pivot and slide, and if one was able to do so with rubber soles, then those would wear down just as quickly.
