Clear Grip, Zero Compromises
Mob Clear Griptape gives you the traction professional skaters trust with the see-through look that lets your deck's artwork show through. The same silicon carbide grit-binding process that made Mob Grip a standard on pro setups since 2000 is built into every clear sheet, so you get full grip performance without covering your graphic.
Why Mob Clear Grip Tape Works
Bubble-Proof Perforations
Hundreds of barely visible micro-perforations let air escape during application. The result is a flat, bubble-free bond from edge to edge, every time, no second attempts needed.
Silicon Carbide Grit-Binding
Mob uses an exclusive process to bind silicon carbide grit directly into the sheet. Unlike standard emery-style tapes, the grit does not wear down or peel away with use. The texture that grips your shoes on day one is still working months later.
Super Sticky Adhesive
The adhesive is formulated to hold through extreme heat and extreme cold. It will not peel up at the nose or tail, and it will not lift at the edges when the board gets wet.
High-Strength Waterproof Backing
The tear-resistant backing sheds water and trims cleanly with a box cutter or razor. No ragged edges, no fraying, no wasted material.
What You Can Apply It To
Mob Clear is purpose-built for skateboard decks but applies equally well to cruisers, longboards, and any flat surface that needs grip. The fine-grit texture and clean-trimming backing make it practical for any board shape.
Application Tips
Peel the backing slowly and align the sheet before pressing down. Start from the center and smooth outward to push any remaining air toward the edges through the perforations. Trim the overhang with a sharp blade, then run the back of the blade along the deck edge to score a clean break line before snapping off the excess.
About Mob Grip
Mob Grip has been producing professional-grade skateboard grip tape since 2000. The brand's silicon carbide formula and bubble-proof perforation technology set the standard that most of the industry now follows.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is Mob Clear grip tape as grippy as standard black grip tape?
- Yes. Mob Clear uses the same silicon carbide grit-binding process as Mob's standard sheets. The transparency is in the backing material only; grip performance is equivalent.
- Will Mob Clear griptape bubble when applied?
- No. Hundreds of micro-perforations across the sheet let air escape during application, so bubbles cannot form. Press from the center outward and the sheet lays flat.
- Does clear grip tape wear out faster than regular grip tape?
- No. The silicon carbide grit is bonded using Mob's exclusive process, which prevents the grit from wearing away over time. The clear backing does not affect how long the grip surface lasts.
- Can Mob Clear grip tape be used on longboards and cruisers?
- Yes. The sheet trims cleanly with a standard blade and the waterproof backing holds on any board shape, including longboards, cruisers, and cruiser decks with kicktails.
- Will the adhesive peel up in hot weather?
- No. The adhesive is specifically formulated to resist peeling in extreme heat and extreme cold. Edges and nose or tail areas stay bonded.
- How does Mob Clear grip tape compare to other clear grip tape options?
- Mob Clear distinguishes itself with the bubble-proof perforation system and silicon carbide grit bonding. Both features are less common in generic clear tapes, which tend to trap air and use less durable abrasive materials.
- Where can I buy Mob Clear griptape?
- Mob Clear griptape is available in store and online at Island Water Sports.
