Traditional Epoxy Non Skid Paint

  • Removal is noisy, dirty, and time consuming
  • Speciality tools and expereince needed for required surface prep
  • Primer must dry and remain clean until epoxy is applied
  • Epoxy has a long cure time
  • Narrow limits for temperature and humidity
  • Areas must be secured for days, preventing other work in the area
  • Rework due to someone stepping on the primer or wet nonskid is common
  • Temporary ventilation needed for interior applications
  • No protection to deck from corrosion – can cause accelerated corrosion
  • Significant quantities of hazardous material must be stored
The key advantage of Silvagrip nonskid over epoxy nonskid is that our peel & stick has none of the associated costs and constraints associated with applying traditional epoxy nonskid or removing it.
