The present invention provides a method to restrain movement of an article on a fibrous surface in a vehicle, comprising: providing an article having a surface A having a static coefficient of friction COF3 of 0.7 or less relative to said fibrous surface; providing one or more non-tacky skid resistance providing sheets that each have opposite first and second major surfaces; putting one or more of said non-tacky skid resistance providing sheets on said fibrous surface such that said first major surface faces the fibrous surface and said one or more non-tacky skid resistance providing sheets together cover only a part of said fibrous surface; and contacting said surface A of said article with the second major surface of said non-tacky skid resistance providing sheet or sheets such that said non-tacky skid resistance providing sheet or sheets cover at least part but not all of said surface A of said article, said first major surface of said non-tacky skid resistance providing sheet having a static coefficient of friction COF1 relative to the fibrous surface and said second major surface having a static coefficient of friction COF2 relative to said surface A of said article, each of said static coefficient of friction COF1 and COF2 being larger than the static coefficient of friction than the static coefficient of friction COF3.
