sugaring the finish to get a nonskid is about as easy as a process gets. In my experience it has only two drawbacks.... it's a bit unpredictable in terms of the way that it will react with different finish media, and it's near impossible to get a perfectly uniform look with it. note, I said "perfectly uniform". it's generally just fine for those that aren't picky. for another low-dough solution, go to home depot and grab one of those hook and loop rollercovers that's intended for use on textured ceilings. after applying gelcoat, run that roller over the top a few times to **** things up.



alternatively, most resin manufacturers also make a gritty additive of one kind or another.
