I used a non skid additive from Behr Premium no 970 they sell it in home depot. I mixed in 2 bags per 64 oz of gelcoat, I then rolled it on with a medium nap roller, I rolled 3 coats letting an hour between coats to get tacky. The final coat I rolled on the gelcoat without the non skid to seal the finish. I wound up spraying the gunnels with the final coat of gelcoat to give it a smoother finish. The gun I used is a HVLP gravity fed gun with a 2.5 tip designed to spray gelcoat. Also the non skid cost only about $5 per bag
