I just finished the deck using Kiwi Grip. I am impressed to say the least. I painted the cockpit sole several months ago as a test. It held up perfectly and did not seem to stain any worse than other surfaces. It is ultra easy to apply. It is an Acrylic (or at least water based) and cleans up easily. It bonds extremely well. I am the worlds worse painter and got small spatter drops from rolling the roller too fast. It is extremely difficult to remove the drops. Also, I have had no lifting on any area. You can control how aggressive you want the skid pattern by various techniques. It works best on a shady day. In hot sun, it dries too quickly. Though I was compelled to paint most of it in those conditions, it still looks great. A perfectionist painter would be able to apply a factory-like finish.
