slippery, plywood decking...

[Mr Fix It]

afternoon all,

after instructing a mate to make good an area of decking over, he decided to use ply and after rainfall, its like an ice rink?!?

is there any sort of non-slip paint i can get to put over the top to stop being falling over? ideally i dont want to take up the whole lot and start again, but i just wanted to see what was a more cheaper option.

You Might try on a scrap piece of plywood a good paint with sand mixed in let it dry and give it the water test .
If you like it , do the deck.

Hi bud
there are several products that you can buy to make the deck/ply non slip. You can get them from Screwfix of BQ and they cost around £25 for 2.5l tin. They work. We use them alot

Staple chicken wire / wire netting to it.

Ensure it has been scrubbed clean & is bone dry before painting it too.

Then the paint stuff wont flake off later.
