Hull & Rib floor paint help

Hello all, Whats the best type of paint to use for the console and floor? Something hard wearing? Should I anti foul bottom or use a standard brightside?

Welcome to Ribnet

What boat, console, condition etc? There may be other ways round it.

I quite like Teamac non slip deck paint for floors-but follow the instructions to the letter,including the hardening time.

Hello nos4r2, thanks for your reply, ive just bought a avon 5.4 searider ex club rescue boat so been neglected. This is my first rib and will likely used as a day boat. I have used international paint on my other boats like brightside, topcoat and anti fouled bottom.
Im not sure what paint to use for inside/floor and should I anti foul bottom?
Thanks in advance. Ruari
