Whitworths sell some in a plastic jar. I can't remember what they call it, but ask for deck grip, and I am sure they will know what you are after.

Coarse sugar didn't work cos it was.... coarse!

Be careful if buying acrylic dust as sometimes marine supplies places don't realise just how savagely coarse the boat stuff is.

Never had a problem with caster sugar.

Solver paints do a non slip additive that is not too coarse.

Caster sugar is the go.

Clean the board, tape up the area you need to treat. Buy a spray can of automotive clear coat.

Spray the coat on. Then distribute sugar through a siv to get an even coat. Some of the sugar will dissolve with use and leave a nice non slip surface.

Dont throw it on like it did originally by hand or you get a lumpy finish.
