It was nice to follow the progress you made via the before, during and after photos.
What paints did you use? Would you recommend these?

Hi Duncan- I used Petit Easypoxy for the decks. I way very happy with the santone color for the non skid and it has held up well. I used a semi gloss white for the other areas to cut down on the glare. Its been ok but after two season there are some areas that I have to touch up.
