paint and varnish

Hi all,
well, after a summer off, its time to get back to the issue pf painting
and varnishing everything on the boat.
Varnish is no real prioblem I thnk, just a lot of work.
howerver, for question one, I was thinking of using a polyurethane,
like I use on the floor, for the table and Nav top. these areas take
a beating and I was thinking this may be a good thing.
the iother question is about painting the deck. I was thinking of
using kiwi-grip for the nonskid. I have also never done anythig
like this before. So, should I paint the area with no nonskid, then apply the
kiwigrip? or should I paint the entire topside?
thanks to all. its now time to pay dues for our 9 years cruising.
