I installed some trailer bunk slicks about 3 or 4 years ago. They worked great for a while -- making loading and unloading an easy chore. But they have recently become "unslick" (for lack of a better description).
Question: Does anyone know of a way to re-vitalize these things to make them slick again, or am I stuck with having to replace them with new ones?
I would greatly appreciate help from anyone with any experience with these.

never seen them get unslick. could then have sand ground down in them or something else on them?

Thanks for the reply, fldmax. They could have something ground into them. I have a very heavy (.125 ga.) flat bottom which is very heavy. Probably will have to resort to buying new slicks.

try a heat gun or if you don't have access to one of them steal your wife's hairdryer and try that

Go to China-Mart......Buy a $9.00 white nylon cutting board....Cut into strips....Screw to bunks. Countersink screws 1/4". Will last for years and takes about an hour.
