At this time of the year our decking wood becomes treacherously slippery.
In fact last year I slipped and fell damaging my right knee which has
never recovered. I'm wondering, is there anything I can put on the wood
to make it safer to walk on?

Yes you need a Ship's Chandler. There are self adhesive pads which you can
stick down. We used them during Boat Building on anything from small boats
to Fast Ferries. (I wasn't involved in that side, I was the Marine
Electrical Design Engineer, but have been thankful for the use when on
trials :-))

Or, when the decking is dry, paint/preserve it and whilst it is still wet,
scatter sand on it

Or, mix the sand in with the paint/preservative.

But your first stop is a ship's chandler.

Here's the sort of thing I mean.
