'Non slip surface' i hear you say (ok, i read it lol). Mask where you want the non slip and paint it in a gloss (doesn't matter about colour), then just sprinkle flour on top of the wet gloss. Unmask and hey presto, one non slip surface. Hope it helps Ian.

Have fun, John

Ive seen non slip done with "sand" but idk if im allowed to post a link to another build on another model site.

To be honest it freaked me out when i saw him pouring sand onto his merkava, Thats how i found out that there was such a thing lol.

Im a modern afv novice.
