The 2nd attempt worked much better and so far I am fairly happy with it.

I think if I were to re-do it I might go with something more along the lines of this: http://ultratuffcoatings.com/ultra-t...skid-coatings/

I use my boat primarily for spearfishing so a lot of gear gets slid around the deck and the result is I already have some scuffs and black marks and whatnot.

Whatever paint/coating you decide to go with will dictate the process and your application method.
that product,"interdeck" ,is a single part cheap crap paint - singe part paints never really cure - it is what it is,cheap low quality crap...

the smart way to refinish the deck is to ,sand it down,tape it out,use a good quality 2 part primer,and roll it out in awlgrip,sprinkle with grip tex and roll it again,then one more time...
this holds up,and looks great,compared to that cheap interdeck...
