Default non skid coating???

What is the best, most durable way, to cover a newly fiberglassed/polester resin --bow deck--20 foot v20...It is an old boat in decent shape but im not really concerned about gloss or shine..i need a very durable non skid coating...im just concerned about duribility and traction as my father sometimes goes up there when he uses the boat...thanks so much

durabak, and when they say nonskid, they mean it

when you order, see if they offer some free rollers, if they do, take as many as you can get, you don't need the big rollers, just the small ones

I used the light gray and it came out great!! if you fall on the non skid, you need to be sitting!

How rough is it? I need to do something on the floor but the wife and kids like to go barefoot when tubing and joy riding.

Richie,
I shot my deck with Gelcoat and air brush it with glass beads, its not agressive on ones bare feet at all, and very much non skid. I am sure you can use it with whatever paint you go with also, Shoot me a PM if you like and I can mail you some for a test on a piece of wood.
