PYI KiwiGrip nonskid deck paint

KiwiGrip antiskid deck paint is ideal for sailors looking to redo their topsides. Unlike antiskid with fillers such as sand or rubber flecks, KiwiGrip is a one-part paint, which lowers not only the cost but also the amount of time it takes to apply. Depending on the application technique you use, the paint can be rolled for a “pleasure boat” texture or a more aggressive or “work boat” feel. The paint is loaded with a UV stabilizer to ensure consistent color and is available in four standard colors—white, cream, light gray and light blue—in addition to black and glow-in-the-dark. Starting at

$47 for 1-liter can.
