I not put non slip coatings yet,I puts steelhead picture

[jcb]

I not spend the money for some yet.I ben thinking of just ruffing up the alimimum flooring and spray paint with light gray to match the new utility hatchs i has bought from tempress.Flooring in me boat is not slippery now so maybe i not need non slip coatings.Wally Mart has spray paint in light gray for 96 cent per can and i thinks she wood look nice spary up with the light gray.I not wanting real dark color as the sun makes for hot feeling on you hands and feet.I thinking i have enough cans for $5 pluss tax to do her up right.Non slip coating coast much more money and i rather spend less if i not really need non slip anyways.Anyone else just ruff up the alimimum and spary flooring up with Wally Mart paint? :|
this is her rite here needing gray painting

many thakyou

I don't have nonslip flooring in my boat.. I did paint the inside of an older boat, and it got pretty slick when it was wet.

You can just put down carpet, or paint it like you mentioned.

Carpet nice but i was wanting to keep away from it as I fish in rivers and use same boat for hunting sometime and there is mud along to bank sometime boots bring mud into the boat.I like pull the plug and run hose in side her to cleen the flooring.I like seeing some of the non splip coating but they cost more money.Maybee it wood be worth it nor not.Spray painting is much cheaper annayways.Anymore thinking about this?

 

[russ010]

I don't know how comfortable that non-slip paint is if you fish barefoot.. I wouldn't think it'd be too comfortable.

You could always make removable flooring with the carpet.. if it's like the carpet I use, you can still hose it down and it will be ok as long as you waterproof the boards good.

There is also a non-slip mat that you can put down too... look for anti-fatigue mats. You can just put them down when you get in the boat and stand on them... they are easy on your legs and back and they aren't slick when you're barefoot.

JCB, I have the texutred paint for plastic on my aluminum floors right now and it's pretty nice, feels good and doesn't slip around when wet.

You could spray the floor then sprinkle some sand on it before it dries. Might be a little rough on the feet and equipment though.

 

[jcb]

I spray scray piece of alimimum with the coatings above and it look good to me.It has rippeled textured feelings and look good.Now all i needed to know is if it hold up to stepping on it and such.

There is some products similar to sand that you can mix with paint then apply it to make a non skid coating. I cant remember the name right away, but we sold it at the paint store that I used to work at in '82.

Just paint it with the paint that you have already and then sprinkle some sand lightly over it while it's wet,worked for me.

Shark grip!? I use it on swimming pool concrete paint for a nonslip surface, apply while paint is still wet or mix with paint.

 

[jcb]
