Default Making fiberglass not slippery

Problem. You leave pits. Minimal slip-resistance. Max clean problems.

Either add sand or use the effect tyatn I was taught onboat decks. Lay
out resin/filler. Dab with a cheap scrubbing brush to create raised
"loops" of resin. Sand to a random stippled finish. Paint with
non-slip paint (has sand in it!!) Magic.

I am putting some fiberglass/epoxy on the floor of my shower (okay, it is a
little off topic, but I could have said my boat deck...) and I want to be
sure it is not slippery. I was thinking about sprinkling some sand on it
before it is totally set. Does that make sense, or is there a better way?

Thanks.

(the shower floor flexes a little too much, and I am afraid it will crack. I
would rather fiberglass it before it cracks than after.)

Apply epoxy - then cover completely with sugar or salt. Let epoxy set. Then wash
- dissolve the sugar/salt
