I'm getting close rolling on some nonskid product thus ending my
life with the evil wood deck menace

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?

As I recall, my last issue of Powerboat Reports had a nonskid comparison in it.
I'll get back to you shortly when I find it.

Thanks!

The February 2003 issue of Practical Sailor did a review of nonskid deck
options, including paints, additives, and mats.

Interesting that Treadmaster was their #1 choice. It would be my
last choice. UGLY! I've discounted PS's reviews over the past
few years.

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

Yes, you can, through the guys in Florida, I think. Well worth it, too,
if you want to stay on deck.

Go to wipe up a paint spill on this stuff with a cloth rag and the rag
shreds.

I'll ask Bruce where he ultimately bought it, but I think it was through
the info below.

I doubt if this is the only product that will keep me on deck

Sounds like a poor attribute to me. My dog and cat may not
like their feet turned to meatloaf. Come to think of it, my feet are
pretty important to me as well.

I'll ask Bruce where he ultimately bought it, but I think it was through
the info below.

Don't bother. Doesn't sound like a product that I would be happy with.

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. It is supposed to be a transparent coat,
but the grid of the mix does have a slightly grey/brownish color. 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. We also tried brushing it,
thinning it to the max, etc. no look. I did not try spraying, but I suspect
it would make no difference.

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

regards,

Marco

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