Non-slip

Thinking about Henry's advice to apply a non-slip coating to the cabin top. I just applied the first coat of resin to fiberglass cloth, which resulted in a very nice nonslip surface. Two questions: is one coat of resin enough? (The first coat took about a gallon), and, will rolled on paint maintain the nonslip surface?

Or, any better ideas for non-slip? Thanks.

Looks to me that the fiberglass weave needs to be completely filled to make sure that it is absolutely sealed.  I plan on adding non-slip additive to the last coat of paint on the fore deck, side decks, cockpit and the head floor.  It is a powder that is mixed in the paint or sprinkled on top of the wet paint.  I like the look where the edges are smooth and the the walkable parts are non-slip.
