Doesn't that dull the edges of the craters, thus losing grip?


Maybe.... I'd have thought that the slippiness is down to aquaplaning
more than anything.

Just had a thought that maybe sprinkling small crumbs of foam (same
colour) on the wet paint, then overpainting with a generous coat would
give a nice rough surface.

The obvious answer is to choose the colour of the paint carefully
to match that of the expected dirt.


True, doing the areas of anti-skid in black would help, though not in
hot weather!

cheers,
Pete.
