Abstract
A water-based acrylic-type floor coating composition is applied to a floor surface for providing slip resistance. The transparent floor coating when applied includes a base layer with particles distributed and anchored uniformly throughout the base layer. The particles have a relatively large size and range in size from 5.times.10.sup.-4 to 2.34.times.10.sup.-2 inches. The particles are sized with respect to their thickness ratio with the base layer such that the particle size to base layer thickness ratio is in the range of between 10.1 to 1.0 and 1.01 to 1.0. The size of the particles results in a top portion of the particles protruding above the surface of the base layer to provide traction.
