No.1...No it doesn't matter using a different manufacturers product. The rules are simple.
You can use a two pot over two pot
You can use a one pot over two pot
You must NEVER use a two pot over one pot.

No.2....Personly I hate sand in paint, or any any of those additive particles in paint to create non-slip. I love the new rubberised non-slip paints now available. Easy to apply, water clean up and very durable. When it does finaly need a recoat, you just wash and recoat.

No.3....Polyurathane is about the best. It is hard wearing and stands up well to the environment. It has good flex. Single pot polys are easy to apply. Two pots are the hardest wearing. AltexDevoe have a brushable twopot poly which makes the application of these paints easier and much safer. Sprayign two pots is very dangerouse without the right safety gear and breathing gear.
