Is this really needed? If I don't use it will i slip around a lot?

This product is worthless. It is like powdered sugar and it will not help at all. An epoxy painted floor will be slick when wet. If you want to make it not slip, use clean masonry sand mixed into the paint.

I have a kit of rust-oleum that make two gallons of epoxy. Do I add two packets of the anti skid

It works better to sprinkle the antiskid on the wet epoxy surface rather than mix it. Mixing it results in a less skid-resistant surface, and in my experience is less consistent. The anti-skid is very fine, so practice "dusting" on some cardboard before applying it to the epoxy.

I want to use clear epoxy to seal my new stone shower floor, but don't know if this additive is clear/transparent. Does the additive have a color?

When we coated our garage, we used this. The color didn't change from the grey we had picked out. It's like mixing in clear sand. You;ll still see the texture, but as the description says, "Will not change the color, performance or properties of the coating when added"

Does this product hinder cleaning/mopping the floor. I dont want a slippery surface but I also want to be able to mop the floor easily.

Yes. It makes mopping more difficult. The fabric of the mop gets caught on the the anti-skid , so leaves little pieces of fabric all over the floor.

Perfect Results. Far cheaper than grip tape and permanent.

Amazing results. I used on wood with stain and it ended up perfectly. Feels like 60 grit sandpaper.

Works great

Recently mixed these into an epixy garage floor. Definitely work as described. Despite a very shiny surface this little bit of texture has made the floor very safe even when wet. One package was more than enough to cover my single car garage floor
