A friend built me a metal ramp for my front door; and when it rains and/or gets cold, I have an ice ramp to slide or fall down. I have thought about a rubber coating but cost is not a possibility.
i heard there is a sand paint but uncertain of the process.

Hello, I know you are wanting sand paint but have you thought about using flexseal. It is a spray on or roll on rubber sealant. Here is a link to check it out. Walmart has it so that is the link I am giving you.

For slick metal stairs I once used Rustoleum brush on paint and tossed down sand into the wet paint. Worked well, no more slipping.
