Damn the companies that produce 'rubberized' paints and pitty the fools that use it! Althought it has great non-skid properties and remains soft and forgiving, it is a real pain to remove. Grinding/sanding turns it into a hot, stinky, sticky mess. Scrapers are completely ineffective. Not being one to turn to chemicals as readily as before, it seems heat is most effective means of removal. This is about fifteen hours into the job
