GoodbyePOA
Thank you that sounds cheap and easy.I painted the top of my floats and put fine sand in the wet paint. Worked great. (need to try it on a piece of aluminum first, the size of the sand matters).
I have used the Randolph compound,not very abrasive,but looks good when applied properly.
Clean it up, prime, paint then get some of the peel and stick stuff from 3M. They also sell an edge sealer. It lasts for years and when it goes to crap just rip off the sticker clean it and replace.
That sounds like the stuff I used. At 1,000 hours I can’t imagine it wearing off yet.

Nice... but why paint the flap? Wouldn’t that just be an invitation to walk on it?
I've used it on several occaisions. It works well. just keep it stirred as you use it. The grit will settle out if you don't.I decided to replace the nonskid on the wing (pic). Has anyone used this nonskid (other pic) or have any other recommendation? And is it a safe asumption that I need to strip the old nonskid and paint down to bare metal? Any how-to wikis much appreciated!
