I'm looking for a place online or a local brand-name store that sells reflective tape...I want to put some on the side of my slides since we seem to boondock alot in parking lots, etc. and have the slides out when needed...

Anyone know of a good place online or a brand name store where I can pick some up????

We saw a fiver in a campground that had put kids float tubes from Walmart on the edges of his so the kids didnt run into them.
I thought it was a good idea and got some yellow forthe bottom and edges of our slides on our MH.
Maybe not exactly what your looking for but its an idea.

I already have 2 orange cones but I'm thinking the reflective tape at night would help more...

You can get reflective tape at Lowes, Home Depot, most any hardware store, several department stores and many Truck Stops.. 3-M makes some very nice reflective strips I have some of 'em on my rig

All truck stops sell it since it is required (I think) on semi's. I got mine at Flying J.

I would think any hardware store, auto parts store, truck stops, Walmarts, and even large grocery stores should have it in the standard colors (red/white strip, red, amber). If you want custom colors, you'll probably have to dig deeper.

By the way, I also put some on the front facing edges of our steps on the motorhome. It makes it easier to see the steps in the rear view mirror, especially at night, but it's helpful even in the daylight. Flat black can be pretty hard to see against pavement.
