Looks fantastic! Did you add any additives to the paint for a texture or grip? Or was it already in the paint?

I added a little Interlux Intergrip to it. Also sanded down the teak thats on the gunnels and stern and treated with Sikkens Cetol (natural teak).

Looks good, I'm also looking to refinish my cockpit deck over the winter. I had used Awlgrip when I initially replaced the deck, and it's held up for 17 seasons, can't believe it was that long ago. Trying to decide which product to use, either Awlgrip again or try one of the interlux products. Going to have to do some research. Unfortunately Awlgrip does not make the color I used, though they do offer something similar

Look at Alexseal maybe better then awl grip , Bight side is great stuff but not up to awl grip or alexseal , But is is cheaper and a lot easier to use
