    Do Grip Clips cause damage/wear?

    I know they're used by quite a few here but I didn't find my answer in the forums.

    Do crip clips cause wear to sil after several uses?

    Thanks.

    Nope,,not when I used them on a OES 10 x 12 numerous times,,if they slip,,use a piece of latex of a balloon and that will stop slippage.

    I had a pair on a SpinnUL tarp for 2 years and another pair on a sil tarp for over a year in the same place.

    No issues in either tarp.
