For the glider, use a marine grade varnish or at least three coats of oil based polyurethane...... For the ramp ***** The fastest and simplest way to address the slipperiness of a ramp is to apply pieces of nonslip tape, or grip tape, to the boards on the ramp. Nonslip paints -- or gritty additives mixed into stains, paints or sealants -- allow you to give the wood on the ramp a rougher texture without necessarily sacrificing the attractive appearance of the wood. One additional option involves securing aluminum treads to the ramp boards. Although aluminum treads are more expensive, they will not wear down and require much less maintenance than grip tape or paint, stain or sealant. ***** https://www.walmart.com/ip/Duckback-Prod.-SC-6310-2-DuckBack-Anti-Skid-Additive-ANTI-SKID-ADDITIVE/43986446?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=1475&adid=22222222227031766257&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=57708059696&wl4=pla-104092528376&wl5=9021628&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=113500168&wl11=online&wl12=43986446&wl13=&veh=sem
I have an outdoor patio with large square stones and pearock in between. It is uneven and you trip easily, how can I level it all or cover with something to fill in gaps or cover without removing those big square stones?
I think that anything short of resetting the stones will not last for long. The ground under the stones must be as level as possible. Consider laying a grid of treated wood in which to place the stones. Then, fill the spaces with the pea gravel. Tamp it down firmly. Then, use a sealing product made of a liquid caulk and weatherproof varnish to seal. You could leave the wooden grid plain or stained the color of choice, then, seal them in weatherproof (marine) varnish.
There may be a better solution to your problem, though. The above is what I would do.
The ramp is beautiful. Great Job. You can use Thompsons Water Seal.
The ramp is great, but I really love the glider! I've been debating on how to paint my outdoor swing, and this is perfect! (Glad to actually SEE it already done. )
