[QUOTE="richg99, post: 427500, member: 4376"] A lot depends on what you actually want for your use. I've painted sailboat seats; put on a second coat, and then sprinkled Sea Salt on while the second coat was tacky. Waited until everything dried up and washed the area with water. The Sea Salt dissolved, and left a very comfortable non-skid. Sea Salt has a much larger Grain size than regular salt, so it left nice little "pock marks". I've also painted over an already painted deck, and then mixed Valspar non-skid material into the second coat. That approach was rougher than the Sea Salt method. On my present 1652 G3 I screwed two 2x4 entryway carpets on. I like them very much. I can power wash them or remove and replace pretty easily. richg99 p.s. You can try the Sea Salt and the non-skid easily enough with any old board, any old paint, some beach sand and you might have to buy a can of Sea Salt. That way, you'll know which you like best.
