Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] nonskid paint



Thats the way we did it on the yard : 

- first a layer of paint, dry
- second layer of paint, with areas witch should not get sand surface
  covered with tape.   
- sprinkle fine sand in large quanties in the wet paint of the
second      layer. 
- after the paint is dry, remove the lose sand by besom and 
  remove also the tape.
- then roll the final paint

regards Carsten
