[Public-List] Question on paint colors

[Don Campbell]

I used Sikkens  grey deck paints but my deck was refinished without the 
diamond pattern. Interlux has now bought out that brand name.  With the 
non-skid in the mix, there is no reflection from the deck whether from 
reflected light from the water or direct sunlight.That paint lasted 
about 10 years and we never had a missed footing even though I raced the 
boat fairly well when we were sailing. The grey does not show the nicks 
and chips quite as much as whites and is a bit easier showing dirt as 
well.. What no-one has said so far is that these paints take some time 
to cure and so you do not want to do much on deck for the first week 
after painting.
