Re: Deck coating??
Hey MJ, sanding it will feather the edges down so you get a nice smooth coat, any ridges left will just be magnified when you paint. I'm getting ready to redo my deck also. Sanding also gives the new surface something to bite into so it sticks very well. Hope it helps

Re: Deck coating??
Thanks, I am putting a textured coat of paint, and I have a diamond pattern right into the fiberglass. So smooth is not a concern!

Re: Deck coating??
Yours is a bit different than mine, all the texture on my deck has been worn off and I dont have a diamond texture. I filled about 50 screw holes w/ marinetex and now it looks like it has the measels

Re: Deck coating??
Durabak ounds like some good stuff. Especially for those 1000 lb marilins that Airborne Jarhead likes to haul onto the deck. Those pointy snouts won't stand a chance against that stuff! ;)
