In the past we have used 50/50 Interlux Interdeck beige/white. I found the beige straight up to be too dark. I just redid another deck with Kiwi Grip Beige and it is just a shade lighter than the 50/50 and I am very pleased with the way it looks. We are in the south and the lighter color helps on the bare feet! Supposedly Kiwi Grip beige has been reformulated in 2012 to be less yellow. I never saw the original, but I am happy with the current.

KiwiGrip can also be colored by any paint shop, so if you can bring in a sample of the nonskid area (a removed hatch perhaps) you could bring it in to a paintshop with you and have white kiwigrip color matched.

Russell,

The photo appears to indicate a nice result using your choices.
Now and already ordered, it looks like Interlux. Desert Sand. I called Robinhood and asked what they are using these days and they
said Moon Dust by Interlux . They said the Desert Sand ( Interlux Paint Chip Samples )should be fine just a shade darker.
On the Cabin Top we will use eggshell same mfg.
The color was established earlier but come to find out yesterday Bilouxi Beige is no longer a choice.

I will post photos when done.
Thanks

I used Petit easypoxy Sandtone and was happy with the color.
