Product Description

Elevate the safety and aesthetics of your boat's deck with KiwiGrip, a premier non-skid coating system engineered specifically for marine and boating environments. Crafted by experienced New Zealand yachtsmen, KiwiGrip delivers exceptional durability, superior traction, and long-lasting color retention, ensuring your vessel's deck remains secure and visually appealing in all conditions.

Product Overview

KiwiGrip utilizes a robust hard acrylic polymer to create an enduring, elastic surface that resists wear and tear from constant marine exposure. The system is designed for easy application using the included 4-inch roller, allowing boat owners to swiftly apply a consistent layer. Depending on the application technique, KiwiGrip's texture can be customized from a smooth finish to a highly aggressive grip, tailored to provide the ideal traction needed for slippery boat decks.

In 2011, KiwiGrip enhanced its formula to extend the working time during application and improve color stability, ensuring that marine environments with intense sun exposure do not diminish the product’s appearance or effectiveness.
