TotalTread is a ready-mixed, slip-resistant polyurethane non-skid deck paint with unique Propyltex™ wax texturing agents. The rounded shape of Propyltex™ waxes provides optimum gloss control and is less abrasive compared to silica texturing agents found in most non-skid deck paints or additives.
Apply TotalTread by brush, roller, or spray equipment. You will love the grippy, but not abrasive, high-traction surface. Apply a second coat for even more grip.
Available in Quart and Gallon sizes in four colors: Sand Beige, Kingston Gray, and White (which match our TotalBoat Wet Edge Topside paint colors), and Light Gray, which is a lighter, less blue gray than Kingston Gray.

Our TotalTread is formulated to address these issues. Instead of a hard irregular shaped silica grit agent, TotalTread's wax rubber spheres are shock absorbing to give the finish some elasticity. The paint sticks better, and the finish looks better longer. It's easier to clean and won't wear away from scrubbing. And, because it's still a 1 part finish, it's easy to apply.
IMPORTANT APPLICATION NOTE
TotalBoat TotalTread should be applied in thin coats. 1-2 thin coats are recommended, for best results.HOW TO RECOAT TOTALTREAD FOR MAINTENANCE PURPOSES
To apply maintenance coats of TotalTread after a few years of use/exposure, clean/dewax the surface and lightly scuff it with 220-grit or 320-grit sandpaper or a maroon Scotch-Brite pad. Scuffing will naturally knock some of the grit down. If it really needs to be sanded heavier, you'll be able to judge that as you're doing it. If anything, the grit usually wears down after a few years, making it a little easier to sand, but would require at least one, maybe two coats of TotalTread for a more true color and desired texture.

Great product have used on the decks of my wood boat and on the map ledge also / on the map ledge it cut down on glare and stopped things from sliding. On my fiberglass boat deck I made the mistake of rushing 2 coats / did the first coat outside temp 50 and under the shrink wrap it got up to 80. I did the second coat the next day and the first coat was not fully cured I had to take my sneakers off and I could see I was leaving impressions in the paint. I rolled on the second coat anyway and it covered the impressions that I made but it took over a week for it to dry before I could walk on it again.my mistake for being impatient just because the daytime temps in NY late March was mid 50's the night temps were low 40's.just make sure your first coat is fully dry before you apply the second coat.

Great product! Must be thinned a little to apply with a roller or brush to get a even coating. when dry it is durable but not too rough, just right.

Followed the instructions for prep work. Applied it with a small foam roller and it went very well. I used 2 coats and I am very impressed with the anti skip. Not to gritty and easy to walk on. Cleaning is easy. I like that should I need to I can just touch it up later.

Easy to apply. beautiful finish. Easy yet non slippery on bare feet. Needed a full quart to coat my 18ft Bayliner floor. Just needed 1 coat because there was an existing Total Tread already there when I acquired the boat.

This stuff is amazing, lotta taping. I used a shot glass for the corners, But well worth it. Super easy to use. Just make sure to go extremely thin on the coats trust me. The second one comes out great. I run charters in Cape Hatteras NC. It was time to not slip anymore 🤣 www.Kitehatteras.net

Good deck paint but I had to add more "play sand" to make it truly non-slip - just not coarse enough. I sprinkled sand and back rolled it into the paint - that process helped remove roller marks too - using a small 3/8" knap mini roller worked the best. Also, it took 2-3 coats to build up thick enough but the coverage is very good. Seems durable enough when cured a few days. Would definitely recommend over more expensive and complicated alternatives.
