Safety should always be a concern and on the minds of all boaters each time they take to the waters. One important safety measure that boat owners of any size craft can take is to install non slip boat flooring.
One leader in the manufacturing of non slip boat flooring produces more comfortable and safer alternatives to standard non-skid surfaces with their exclusively cross-linked PE/EVA foam products.
This product provides sound dampening, and is stain resistant and easy to clean. All foams offered by this company are long-lasting, low maintenance, oil-resistant, UV resistant, and non-absorbent.
If boaters go to install this non-slip flooring on their boat, there will be no need to strip away older non-stick surfaces. Their foams, which can be applied over existing non-skid surfaces, come formulated with a 3M acrylic-based high-bond pressure-sensitive adhesive. It is designed for application to most painted or metal surfaces, Awlgrip, gelcoat, and non-skid, non-slip surfaces.
This non-slip flooring, with proper care and installation, can be expected to last from about five to seven years. In terms of heat retention from the sun’s rays, this material is designed, due to its closed-cell structure, not to reach temperatures that standard boat surfaces like fiberglass and aluminum realize.
Cleaning this non-slip flooring is rather simple and inexpensive. To clean footprints, general dirt, and so on, all that’s needed is an all-purpose cleaner like 409, Simple Green, or Dawn, some clean warm water, and a medium bristle brush. Fish blood is cleaned up off of this surface with one cup of bleach to one gallon of warm clean water and a soft bristle brush.
