I have a terrible time keeping my rulers from slipping while cutting with a rotary cutter. I have found that the OmniEdge rulers are great and they have helped me to be more steady. But I still have a little trouble. So I decided to try this product. I have found that if I just put about 1" squares along the corners and center of my square rulers and 1" x 5ish" strips around the edges of my long rulers, I get great stability without using a bunch of the roll. It's also easier to apply, easier to get off if I should decide to do so. I also don't feel like I'm wasting it if I need to replace the squares after a certain length of time. Though, after a couple months of using this product on my rulers, I haven't had to replace any squares and they still grip quite well.
