How can I keep a throw rug from slipping.
+3
I have a throw rug in my bathroom that has no rubber backing to keep it in place is there anything I can put in it to keep it from slipping. I have tried the rubber pad thing you cut to size and put under the rug but the rug eventually slips off that as wel. I would like it to be permanent and washable. Thanks

Rubber cement can be painted on to the back and it will be less slippery. After a few washings you may need to reapply. You could also sew the rubber pad to the rug. Whatever you decide, good luck.
use some shelf liner like they use in motorhomes to keep dishes from moving
There is a paint on nonslip material that came in a jar that I used on a bathroom carpet years ago that worked wonderfully.
Heres a similar product for you to look at, please check reviews Q&A and see if it meets your needs. Also look around at different manufacturer of this sorts paint on nonslip. I did my carpet more than a decade ago and sorry-I dont remember the product name.

Paint a few rows of rubber cement on the back and let it dry. Your rug will now be non-slip.
The home improvement stores sell a tape for this. Or the shelf liner type rolls or specific rug mats.
