AMES Safe-T-Deck Stormy Sky Satin Exterior Anti-Skid Porch and Floor paint ( 5-gallon )

Initial impression is great

Tested on some rough cut lumber before coating stair treads. Seems to adhere well and provides a little extra grip especially when wearing socks/slippers!

Traction and durability

The ramp leading into my shed has needed a facelift for a while now. Untreated, this ramp would get slimy and slippery on rainy days and literally ice up on snowy ones. Nailing rubber strips as traction for walking and the tractor was a decent fix, but always left the risk of nails coming out and popping a tire over time. This paint is thick and will likely provide the needed traction and also seal the wood to extend the life of the ramp. The paint was viscous enough to fill the holes and groov...

paint

nice no slip texture, covers up everything and easy to paint on concrete walls and steps, the texture of the paint is thick, but should last a long time

Great product

Great product packaging was above average super well packed so it wouldn't spill good color coverage is average but not too dark which we liked we had a lighter shade of gray but it contrast very well

Works great and looks fantastic

I used this on my front porch, which is concrete. The product is slightly thick, but it applies very easily. The coverage square footage is as advertised. It does start to dry relatively quickly and will leave spots if not smoothed out in time; however, any minor blemishes can be covered up with a second coat. The coating looks great and has brightened up the whole porch. The coating is also durable, as I have had kids play on it with their bikes and E-Z-Rollers with no issues. I would definitel...

Great for studio floor

I used this on the unsealed concrete floor of a glass studio. The gallon was enough to cover 120 square feet with 2 coats. It rolled on very easily with little to no noticeable smell. I was happy with the results. It helped the studio look more finished. The texture gives it a nice nonslip surface. The color is a nice blue gray.

Great concrete "paint", easy to work with

I just moved into a new house with an unfinished concrete front porch. This was the perfect solution to beautify this area as here in North Carolina, there is a lot of orange dirt that stains concrete. The concrete was new but I nonetheless gave it a quick clean with a pressure cleaner and let it dry thoroughly. After letting the concrete dry for several days, I prepped with tape and plastic. This paint has the consistency of pudding! It is actually really easy to work with as it does not splash...

Slip Resistant

I chose Safe-T-Deck to revive our weather-beaten porch, and it stood up to my mixed DIY skills with surprising ease. The Stormy Sky color is forgiving—dust and wear disappear under the slightly gray-blue tint, which matches our cedar siding and hides chips from years of sun. The texture feels grit-heavy enough to grip shoes without feeling sandy, yet not so rough that it annoys bare feet. I appreciated the water-based formula: cleanup was a breeze, and the smell wasn’t overwhelming, which matter...

It works as advertised, but...

I needed something to improve traction on my wooden decks, especially when they're wet or covered with snow, and this product definitely does the job. However, make sure to read the instructions before applying it. It requires two coats and needs to cure in temperatures above a certain level. If you live in a colder climate, plan to apply it early in the season. A word of caution — this material is very thick. I cannot imagine any sprayer handling it, even though spraying is listed as one of th...

Great product

Ames Safe-T-Deck slip resistant, granulated deck coating was so easy to apply and looks wonderful. We are converting a shed into a pottery studio and the wood floor definitely needed something to protect it from clay and water. We gave the floor a good thorough cleaning, and made sure that we had swept up all dust and dirt prior to starting to apply the first coat. We were covering a fairly small area so opted to use a paintbrush for a bit thicker coverage. We allowed several hours in between co...
