Eventually I was able have some white KiwiGrip shipped out of Los Osos, CA by Chetco Marine in mid March. By the time I finished, I ended up using about 1.25 gallons of KiwiGrip. It turned out that the first gallon of KiwiGrip from Chetco Marine arrived damaged and opened in the box. I managed to salvaged about 1/2 the gallon. Chetco Marine sent out a complete replacement gallon(nice folks). I still have a little left for touch ups. One gallon may have been enough, but since I had plenty, focused on putting down a good layer.
