[QUOTE="Buckethead, post: 353594, member: 9470"] I didn't make it on the water but I did get 2 coats of nonskid painted on. The product went on very thick so I had to work a little harder to keep the coat thin. I thinned the mix with water for the second coat and it went on a lot better. I am very happy with the end result. It's a non toxic "green" product, not that "green" is at the top of my priority list but not having to worry about toxic vapors and fumes is a definite bonus. My surface was already sanded and primed so it was suggested by the owner of bipacco to wash down the surface to be covered with Dawn dish washing detergent to get rid of any oil. You'll see in my before and after pics I started outside then moved back into the garage, about halfway through the first coat, outside, one of the river birch trees and a gust of wind spread 10,000 seed pods about half the size of a pea all over my freshly painted surface. I was able to get them up with the shop vac and my pocket knife without too much trouble. Here's the pics. I don't think bipacco is a sponsor here but they should be, great product, easy to use and priced right. The product I used is called eco-tread in haze gray. Buckethead [/QUOTE]
