The Safety Step Coating Kit, which includes a pint of safety-step base plus a bag of safety grit, allows one to apply a good traction area on any surface where he/she walks or climbs: e.g., tractor/combine steps, truck/trailer beds, ramps. The base is applied with a disposable brush or putty knife, and then the grit sprinkled onto the still-wet base. Coverage area is 4 square feet.
