Did it on a buddys floor and its very hard to clean. But it looks great when it is clean.

I did my V with Durabak a few years ago and it's holding up pretty well. I will need to redo it next year because its starting to peel in a few places. As for cleaning the deck after Durabak is applied, I found a good stiff deck brush with a long handle works great for scrubbing the floor. I also use bleach and Dawn dish soap to clean the deck and it comes out great and looks like it was just painted again. Striper blood, squid guts,sea worm schmoo just seem to lift right off with the brush and soap. I love Durabak and will be redoing again.

What makes the Durabak better than the rest is just how durable it is. In my opinion you need to figure out the number of coats of textured and smooth to get it to your liking. We did two coats textured on my Sportsman. I think we need one coat of smooth and it will be perfect. Has anybody done all smooth, no textured? I wonder how "grippy" the smooth is?
The "pitting" you are seeing is the rubber granules that give it texture. Even with a good thick coat of fish slime i don't slip. I figured out why mine looks so horrible. I put "putty tape" used on metal building roofs on my gas tank hatch and last time i pulled it, the putty tape got all over the place.
