By that remark it is apparent you have no idea what Thermion is.
It is the new ceramic/steel/aluminum-composite flight-deck coating for the USN's CVNs, LHDs, and LHAs (and will be applied to other USN flight decks where MV/CV-22 operations are expected).
In addition to vastly better heat-insulation characteristics compared to existing flight-deck non-skid coatings, it is also expected to last in excess of 5 years between re-applications... compared to around 6 months for the current non-skid (less in high-wear areas)!
