They definitely help!
I have a terrible time keeping my rulers from slipping while cutting with a rotary cutter. I have found that the OmniEdge rulers are great and they have helped me to be more steady. But I still have a little trouble. So I decided to try this product. I have found that if I just put about 1" squares along the corners and center of my square rulers and 1" x 5ish" strips around the edges of my long rulers, I get great stability without using a bunch of the roll. It's also easier to apply, easier to get off if I should decide to do so. I also don't feel like I'm wasting it if I need to replace the squares after a certain length of time. Though, after a couple months of using this product on my rulers, I haven't had to replace any squares and they still grip quite well.
Word to the wise: the instructions tell you to use your ruler and rotary cutter to cut the Invisible Grip to the desired size. I did this and found that it dulled my nearly-new 60mm blade sooooooo badly that I had to replace it. So, use household scissors (NOT your fabric/crafting scissors), cut squares or strips and apply them to the backs of your rulers along the edges. Use an old credit card, gift card, library card, etc. to press out any air from under the Invisible Grip, in kinda of a squeegee-motion.
