[C320-list] Companionway Steps

[Orlando.Duran at AveryDennison.com]

What I did was to use blue tape to line out two rectangular areas on each step then mixed epoxy and course sand, trowled it on, let it set then varnished everything...very 'yachtie' look to it...

After struggling with some of the same refinishing questions about the  
companionway steps and thinking about ways to improve the traction (I've  
seen how some have used 3M anti-slip tape), I decided to strip the steps  
of all polyurethane finish and use teak oil.
I think it looks great.
