TotalBoat TotalTread Non-Skid Marine Deck Paint

Показать описание

Unique non-skid slip resistant marine deck paint creates a high-traction surface that’s less abrasive and more durable compared to traditional silica additives. This one-part polyurethane’s low-glare finish lasts longer and looks better than what you’ve been using. Ideal for use on boat decks, docks, ramps, steps and more.

Less gritty 'grit' has greater grip and longevity

Particle size matters. The round Propyltex™ particles in TotalTread are less abrasive than traditional silica, but more abrasion resistant. They come in a range of sizes, each with a different purpose. Some make sure the coating grips and lasts. Others lower the gloss level to prevent eye-straining sun glare on a wet deck. Some create a smooth feel underfoot. It doesn’t hurt to walk barefoot on it, and if you do hit the deck it won’t hurt nearly as much as old fashioned ‘sand’ non-skid additives do.

Masking is the hardest part of applying TotalTread

The non-skid stuff in TotalTread has a low density so it stays suspended in the paint. Unlike other slip-resistant deck paints, the particles won’t float to the top, or sink to the bottom. Mixing is easy and quick, and doesn’t require a trip to the local paint store to have them give it a ride on the shaker for you. Because the particles stay suspended in the paint, it’s easy to lay down an even coat of consistent texture. You don’t have to keep stirring the paint to keep the particles in play. The most time-consuming painting task is masking off areas where you don’t want TotalTread.

More coats equals more grip

High-solids TotalTread will cover completely in one coat. However, we recommend two coats to get the best combination of grip and durability. If you want even more texture, apply a third coat.

Looks cleaner after cleaning

Sounds obvious, but hard-scrubbing traditional non-skid coatings can leave ugly dark specks where the silica particles wear through. TotalTread is easier to clean because it’s less abrasive. And because it’s more abrasion resistant, the only thing hard scrubbing does is make it look as good as the day it was applied.

Create a custom non-skid color

Like the texture, but not the tint? Concocting your own color is easy. Just mix TotalTread colors, or blend a TotalTread color with a TotalBoat Wet Edge color.

Not just for your boat’s deck

Use TotalTread slip resistant paint where extra traction is needed, such as wooden stairs, steps, and docks.

How to apply maintenance coats of TotalTread

After a few years of use/exposure, you may want to recoat TotalTread to improve the color or texture, as the grit can wear down over time, especially in high-traffic areas. To recoat, clean/dewax the surface and scuff lightly with 220-grit or 320-grit sandpaper or a maroon Scotch-Brite pad. Scuffing will naturally knock some of the grit down. Remove scuffing residue and apply at least one, maybe two coats of TotalTread for a more true color and desired grit.
