Really diggin the new L2501. Did notice last week after getting my boots wet the painted platform was a bid slippery. Thought about getting a rubber mat (my last compact tractor came w one) but decided to go this route. I used Rustolium brand. Has a nice texture for grip. Took the center hump cover off also and gave it a couple of coats. It already had a nice scuff on the orange paint from my boot w only 7 hours on it. I'm happy with the way it came out.
