    Hi, a little help needed. Can anyone recommend antislip paint for an outdoor stairs. Its a metal stairs and a little slippy especially when wet.
    Any advise for some type of gritty/ grippy brand of paint or is it a pro job?
    Thanks

    you can get covers for the treads, like this kinda thing :

    might be better because it wouldn't depend on how well it was painted etc

    You can get Griptex aggregate for paint, you mix it in the topcoat and paint it on.
    Any half decent marine supplier will have it.
    Or you can get dry silver sand and paint the steps, sprinkle the sand on and then topcoat it again.
    Adhesive stuff never lasts long outside in this climate in my experience.
