Since you are talking about it....

The stuff provides one of the best antiskid surfaces I have seen, although
I
don't know how durable it would be.

That's always a question. I met someone that had a very agressive non-skid
on a boat he just bought (old boat). Years of use had caused the grit to
grind into the deck thus breaking the bond. Areas of the paint (non-skid)
were peeling up like sandpaper.

It is supposed to be a transparent coat,
but the grid of the mix does have a slightly grey/brownish color.

Well, that rules it out for me.

My problem
is that I cannot figure out how to put this paint on my decks (already
painted with white 2 pack polyurethane) and get a nice decent finish. They
recommend using a foam roller, but this method leaves strakes of the grid
all over the place. It just looks like sh.t.

Rolling without streaks is an art but is possible. YOu might try tipping it
with a brush.

We also tried brushing it,
thinning it to the max, etc. no look.

Brushing would seem to be tricky.

I did not try spraying, but I suspect
it would make no difference.

I don't think you can spray anything with such an agressive grit.

Does anyone have recommendations on how to apply this non-skid coat on
white
deck surface?

I have friends that trowled on a non-skid.

regards,

Marco

PS: I'm out of the states. I order the paint directly from the producers
in
france.

sailing) is called "Nautix-Grip" and Bruce Schwab has coated the decks
of Ocean Planet with it preparatory to the Vendee Globe.

I was am planning on using Interdeck but have been told that is is not
very agressive. A suggestion was to add an Awlgrip product
that is glass beads to give it more grip. Any advice?
