I used Kiwi grip, I didn't like how it looked and was hard to keep clean. It's even worse to grind off....I now have Awlgrip non skid and love it.

Ditto on all previous comments with emphasis on applying in shade to avoid short working time. I've used it on two boats. It's good stuff and REALLY easy to apply. There are application videos that show trowelling onto the deck, but I used a big cheap paint brush to rapidly slop it on and then worked it with the special roller. Once you get the hang of it, you can really fly. One person applying and one person spreading can do an entire deck in minutes. Proper masking takes the most time. Water clean-up is great.
You can get very close to the original off-white Seacraft gel coat colors by adding a little creamy yellow to white, but the contrasting colors look pretty sharp too. I've done both and liked both. The heavier texture IS harder to keep clean. My preference is minimal texture - it's still really grippy. With a product this durable and easy to apply, there's no reason to have an old ugly deck. It's probably one of the cheapest and easiest ways to improve the appearance of your boat.
