non skid deck paint

[hatti34]

i will be attending the atlantic boat show this weekend anybody know of a good nonskid paint for the deck that can be rolled on

[rrrwel]

I just tried some KIWI Grip on a cockpit we rebuilt. I got the white color and had it tinted to match. It came out very good. I've used other non-skid products that you add into the paint but KIWI is by far the easiest to apply and looked great. Now we need to see how long it will last.Even if I need to recoat after 5 years it will be super easy to do. I also did the swim platform with it.

My only concern is how it will it clean up from fish blood and bird droppings.

Good luck

I'm also a fan of Kiwi Grip, and use it on the boats I build. It is excellent stuff and easy to apply. I've tried every product on the market and I think the KG is superior to them all.

No problem. It's very easy to clean and doesn't stain. My boats get a lot of fish blood

If you decide to try it, let me know and I'll tell you how to apply it with professional results.

Cracker Larry, man I thought that boat was ALLOY when I first looked at it , you did a VERY nice job on the application.

Thank you Welder! I appreciate that

The interior paint is System3 LPU over System3 High Build Yacht primer. Exterior paint is Sterling over the same primer.
