Park Smart floor mats

I'm not sure if this is the right area or not, but here it goes.

I ordered the Park Smart mats, and I'm having problems with them sliding on my painted garage floor. Anyone have any ideas on how to keep them from sliding? I was thinking about the anti-skid stickers that you would put on steps...

TIA!

When I had mats down on my painted floor, they came with a small strip of double sided tape at each end. The mats were so heavy though, they really didn't move around so much. The tape also lifted a bit of paint.

I have a problem in that I can't back straight in so we have some issues with turning the front tires. That's why I eventually gave up on the mats and went to an interlocking tile product.

Hope you find a good solution.

My Father has the same problem with a simalar product. He has found nothing that would really hold it, I will say a vehicle with a larger tire seemed to work better (Car vs. SUV the two vehicles that use it). The double sided tape is about worthless. I don't know maybe an epoxy, that is if you want it to stay for a long time.
