That a good idea, I like the sand thing.
Get porch or deck paint and mix in the play sand put on 2 coats.
they have a product out called deck restore its has a non-slip type texture when dries on the decking its almost like armor coating its anywhere from $24 to $30 a gallon you can get it at lowes or home depot it last forever!!!!!
Put a thick coat of oil based paint down and throw sand on it.
I would use the decking in 5 quarter. Sturdier and stonger. That being said, whatever I used I would do as they suggested and put a good exterior paint on it with some masons sand mixed in it. Now it is kinda pricey but rustoleum makes a product that I have used for this purpose, comes in a kit with the special roller and paint and grit that you pour into the paint. When it dries out it looks like a rough bed liner and is pretty durable also. I have used it on two decks and a patio here in town and the results are nice.
Sorry I was wrong it is not rustoleum but is Deck Restore as Strmwalker stated. Here is the link to their site, and he is correct.. I put it on a patio here about 4 yrs ago and was over there about a month ago doing some more work and it still looked good as new.Synta, Inc. » Deck Restore
I been real lazy on keeping my deck treated and have been on the fence about using the restore or replacing the deck boards. All of my frame is goodQuote:

They are still sound and not rotted, just weathered and some cracking
This product will transform it Slimey. If you have no rotting I would highly suggest it. Just use it on the decking and like I say just paint the rails with a good paint.Quote:
