The non-skid is Cast-A-Coat. It sprinkles on after you put down a liquid. My photos were taken after I glued other stuff on, so some liquid glue soaked into the non-skid, so in some parts it seems to be missing.
It still looks good, Bob. It could easily represent normal wear and tear due to crew movement on the non-skid surface.
If, on the other hand, you're not happy with the effect, you might try Mr. Surfacer. It's best applied by stippling it on with an old brush. Here's a 1/6 scale M5A1 Stuart drive sprocket receiving this treatment.
Here's a URL which is a Mr. Surfacer tutorial:
