What this video covers

Applying non-slip coating to boat interior steps and floorboards requires a multi-stage process of surface preparation, painting, and additive integration. After sanding wooden components to remove grain and filling imperfections with wood filler, the project involves applying multiple coats of satin-finish floor paint.1:21 For the non-slip sections, the final coat incorporates a 200-micron grain additive, specifically Deck Grip M200, mixed at a ratio of 10 grams of powder per 100 grams of paint.11:43 This mixture provides a durable, high-traction surface similar to that used on the boat's coachroof.9:29 While the paint may feel dry to the touch within 24 to 48 hours, a full cure for solvent-based floor paints often requires 25 to 30 days to ensure complete solvent evaporation and maximum durability.14:21 Proper masking techniques are essential for clean transitions between painted and non-slip areas.8:49
