[C320-list] Wax for Dianmond Non-Skid surfaces

[Barbara Uhlman]

How does this stuff work with the newer non-skid surfaces that are random 
bumps?  Topside cleaning is coming up soon.  Thanks in advance.

We used this and found that it helps. You may find that it works better if you 
start with a deck that has been wet for several hours. Short of rain or a hose 
to keep it wet, try starting early in the morning with a deck wet from dew.

If you have a pressure washer this does a remarkably easy job of cleaning the 
nonskid. Then the teflon wax thing makes it clean easier in the future. Stay 
away from all thru-deck fittings and stick to the nonskid areas and don't over 
do it is my suggestion.

you found that a single use will leave the deck easier to wash down (without 
another application) for 6 months. That would be great as it is the length of 
the sail season here. Brian Amirault 797 Waltzing Bear, too
