About 4 years ago I was contacted by a company about their acrylic deck sealer. I believe the name of the product was Tropi-Deck or Tropi-tech or something like that. It was an alternative to Wolman Extreme. Supposedly Sea-Ray was using this product for their wood boat floors. I never followed up with these folks, and can't find any contact information for them.

I am no fan of Extreme, and am looking for a semi-transparent thick acrylic to use to cover Extreme and give a similar look. Anybody heard of this product or know of one like it?
 
Pete,

The Flood Company, Hudson, OH, has relaunched Tropitech Spa-N-Deck exterior wood finish. The 100% acrylic coating was initially developed by Fran Koebert, a paint industry scientist who sold it to a limited market in the southeastern U.S. Tropitech Spa-N-Deck came into the Flood stable when Mr. Koebert’s company, Tropitech Coatings & Research, Naples, FL, was acquired in 1998. .
 
FYI, the Flood corp. has (according to them) improved on this product by introducing a base product (primer) to avoid failure problems of this type of product.
