Garrett and Ruth apply multi-season, UV-resistant bottom paint and a rubberized non-skid deck coating to their boat, *Red Aviva*, during a final yard refit.▶ 1:06 The pair uses Total Boat products for the hull and deck, opting for a textured, sand-colored non-skid paint that provides grip without being abrasive to bare skin.▶ 0:52 The application process involves extensive taping to ensure clean lines, though the thick, rubberized nature of the non-skid coating causes minor bleed-through at some corners during the final tape removal.▶ 16:35 The crew applies four coats of non-skid to achieve uniform pigment coverage, using a textured roller for large surfaces and a paintbrush for tight areas around stanchions.▶ 14:01 The project concludes with the boat nearing a launch date, with the owners prioritizing a low-maintenance, durable finish for future tropical cruising.
