ABSTRACT:
A novel texture for providing improved gripping of bare skin on wet surfaces is disclosed. In one embodiment, the novel texture is employed on a swimming pool touchpad assembly (10) at a start/finish end wall (12) of a swimming pool (14). The texture includes distributed ultra-fine particles (44) having a dimension of less than 100 microns and, preferably, less than 50 microns, and provides an unexpected "dry" feeling for enhanced slip resistance.
