My elderly neighbors have asked me to replace their wooden out door
steps and are interested in some sort of non slip surface applied to the
new steps. There seems to be a few choices and I would like to inquire
here for any recommendations.Since it is an outdoor application I am in
need for a durable solution that can hold up to Michigan weather.
thank cj

A dental office near where we used to live East of Seattle had wide
curving steps going up to the offices. Snow and ice made them really
dangerous, so they fastened expanded metal (aluminum, I think) to the
steps. worked great in the winter snow, but were a pain to walk on the
rest of the year. Also looked like crap.
