I have put a staff on the floor using Green Painters tape. It does last a long time, and when it starts to rip, I just tear off the section and put a new section down. The tape is about an inch wide, but comes in various widths. It cost me $3.00 at Wal-Mart. If you are going to use paint, I would recommend fabric paint. I have painted a mat before and bought the fabric paint in the craft store. Good luck!
