Boat floor

[Griz]

I have carpet on my boat floor which is permanent. I want to remove it and put down a paint type covering which isn’t slippery. The floor of the boat is fiberglass under the carpet. What’s the best options ?

Most likely the glue will leave the back of the carpet down atleast when i redone my floor in my boat it did.
A wire brush or these work the best to get most of that glue off
Dont use a solvent because its hard to get clean after, unless you can use hot water pressure washer. Because you can whipe it down with acetone but you can never get it all

You won't be sorry , I'ts awesome to have a washdown hose handy and use it many time a day, a clean boat keeps the flies from moving in on ya.
