All interesting.

Anyone use soft sand ever?

You could use a ceramic matte paint maybe..

The gray kiwi didn’t seem hot to me...but I have Florida cracker asbestos feet. :wink:
Sent a text to my son for his opinion, haven’t heard back yet.
The sand or non skid additives in paint work fine but they tend to look blotchy to me.
If heat is a concern with the gray, cut it 50/50 with white...
