I see the slider’s grip surface is dusty af. Does the dirty brush/rinse off easily? Or does it remain with the dusty tone?

I have had other sliders in the past where the sandpaper-ish top plate surface was persistently “dirty” looking.
I took the pics live while in Moab out on the trail. They get nice and black once rinsed off. I'll post a pic in the morning , I just came home from Moab and rinsed off the car but it's dark now.

Washed the dust off the car last night. This is how it looks in the morning. It's pretty overcast here.

There is grip tape on the sliders, comes with it, that makes it easy to step on it without sliding off.

thank you! How durable is the surface? Do you imagine tearing it or scrapping chunks off? Say you have gravel stuck in the soles of your shoes?

It looks durable to me. My friend has had his on for a couple of months and it looks the same as when new.
Dissent off-road recommended putting this truck bed liner on underneath the slider for touch-up purposes after rock contacts. They said its better than paint and much tougher.
I took this picture at Dissents workshop in Auburn, CA when i was there to have the slider installed (it was on the way to Moab and i saved on shipping).

If you were at Expo East and on the hunt for step sliders, we probably chatted at the LFD Off Road booth....

Sadly i didnt get a chance to talk about them. I only had a full day there. Saturday. I wish i had more time. But i did see them from a distance.
What is the lead time on them currently?

It would be best to message/email them, but I would imagine the standard 10-12 weeks

I put on the Owl step sliders. I like them a lot. However my wife hates them. They have holes for grip, like other types do, and her heels get caught in them. I would have also preferred they kick out in the back, not the front.
