Welcome to our forum.
Fading can also be an issue with the smooth acrylics.
Ok Emp, Ed, we can agree to disagree.I have slipped on granite style acrylic too. Perhaps it was the false sense of security I got from knowing it was textured....Conversely I have not slipped on smooth stuff, but maybe I was just being more careful.Now, I am going to try to "sand" something with some granite style acrylic, I'll let you know how it works out.
HEY maybe I should have gotten a smooth finish and just implimented a NO BATHING SUIT policy......well for the women anyway Also consider what will go with your back yard theme too.
On you way out, don't slip on the carpet! You have a tendency to lose balance on sturdy materials!!! Just kidding.-Ed
How can this happen when the color is imbedded same as the textured finish???
I've had my pearl surfaced tub for over a year! No scratches, still looks shiny and new! I don't notice a problem with it being slippery!
Perhaps slippery is also a function of water chemistry. The one time we had a scum line problem, the water line area in our tub felt slippery.
As the water gets "older" it feels, to me, a little thicker and more slippery. -Ed
