    (54) Anti-slip surfaces


    (57) An anti-slip traffic surface is formed by distributing aluminium-oxide particles (3) over a first coat (2) of an alkyd or epoxy-resin paint containing chlorinated rubber, while the paint is still wet. A second coat (4) of the paint is sprayed over the first coat (2) to lock in the particles (3). The surface is given retro-reflectivity by distributing glass beads (10) over the second coat (9) before it dries, such that the beads (10) nestle between the particles (8) and sink partially into the second coat (9). The beads (10) may delineate markings (12,13) of a helicopter landing pad or of an airfield taxiway.
