Hello forum, just finishing up a rebuild of a commercial alignment lift and find that I truly need an anti skid coating applied for driving on and off the lift safely if the environment outside the doors are a least bit damp/wet.
I am sure I am not the first person here to encounter said problem and hope to draw wisdom from those that have venture forth before me. I know many folks recommend sand and while a great aggregate, suspension in paint is an issue, sprinkling requires a real fast wet coat applied I would think first. As you can see in the pic...this lift is void of any means for traction. I got this used and have rebuilt it...thus the new paint, I saw no indication of a anti skid paint ever being there when I received this in a very used condition.
What have folks here found to be most effective and while not cheapo type person, would like it to be somewhat cost effective. I would love to find a couple gallons of what the Navy uses on surface ship decks.....where is a Army/Navy surplus store when you need them....that stuff is tough....
thanks....
