    I have been looking at invisi-GRIP but I read some not so great reviews that say it does not work well. Also read sandpaper dots can make the ruler hard to reposition. Any suggestions of what works for you?? Thanks in advance

    I like the Invisi-grip better than the sandpaper or clear dots.

    I haven't found anything that is really good for me. My rulers are all older so I was looking around and found some that I really like. I have been slowly replacing my slippery rulers with creative grids rulers. They have non slip backs and good clear rulers with black writing. Very easy on my eyes.

    I use True Grips by the Grace Company. I swear by them! They are like Invisa Grips but better! They come with 15 non-slip adhesive rings and I also use the leftover strips and little dots that are left after pulling the rings off too! I waste nothing!

    Love the Invisi Grip, because it doesn't elevate the ruler like the dots do.
