Marine Coatings Anti-Slip Additive, Clear, Half Pint
Description
Rust-Oleum’s Anti-Slip Additive is a finely ground pumice-textured mixture intended to be blended into latex or oil-based marine topcoats to impart skid-resistance. When added to your paint layer, it helps prevent slipping on wet or slick surfaces without altering color or coating performance.
Key Features & Benefits
Feature |
Description |
Skid-Resistant Texture |
Adds a fine, non-abrasive grit to surfaces for enhanced traction on wood, metal, fiberglass, or concrete. |
Color-Neutral |
Designed to be virtually invisible — won't change the finish or color of your paint. |
Compatibility |
Works with marine coatings, latex, and oil-based paints. |
Long-Lasting Performance |
Once integrated into the coating, it retains skid-resistance for the life of the finish. |
Fine Pumice Material |
Uniformly disperses in paint, giving a subtle texture rather than coarse grit. |

Use Cases & Applications
- Marine decking, boat walkways, and docks — create safer, non-slip surfaces in wet environments
- Residential stairs, ramps, decks — blend into outdoor paint to reduce slip hazards
- Industrial walkways / platforms — introduce skid resistance without altering coating properties
- Stair treads, ramps, boat ladders — ideal in zones with water or moisture exposure
Tips for Best Results
- Stir constantly during the painting process to maintain consistent dispersion and avoid settling.
- Use the additive only in the paint, not directly on bare surfaces.
- Match the grit density to the use-case: more additive for steeper or frequently wet surfaces, less for modest tread.
- For optimum performance, apply in two light coats to ensure an even spread of additive.
