You're probably thinking of SlipPlate (paint with graphite in it).

My FIL used it on his Kubota and it seemed to work for a little while but quickly wore off.

Slip plate will eventually wear off. Just expoy primer and paint it like the rest of the tractor.

you want the underside of the deck to be as smooth as possible, rough surfaces make it easier for the grass to stick that's why bed liner or similar coatings are a bad idea. flat paint is also a no no, use hi gloss paint for best results.

I agree, but I'm gonna take it a step further.... I have found its just like a plow. Polished smooth, no rust, no paint is best. However... it's tough to keep the underside of a deck that way because grass is alive. Even when it's dry, it's wet.

I tried the slip paint, it didn't last long.

I used the rattle can. Got it at TSC. Out of curiosity what deck are we talking about?

I brush on a thick coat of black paint about every 2 years.
