Anyone know how? I read a wee bit and they just say to avoid painint it if all possible. im guessin the only way would be some type of paint stripper? <br /><br /><br />The deck has meshes that go down deeper then the surface so you cant sand it or anything, only the surface of it. <br /><br />Thanks in advance!!<br /><br />Jay D

Can you post a picture of what you are talking about? Is it a small area or the entire deck?

You can get away with painting those kinds of decks, but usually only once.. If the deck's been painted before, adding more paint will cause the deck loose its "grip"..<br /><br />My opinion, sand the "meshes" down smooth or fill the areas, then use a non-skid product like http://www.ultratuff.net/
