Squatting Dog

On the way to work this morning I had an idea to protect the door sill area.. Instead of buying and trimming existing door sill protectors, or grip tape...
I thought just plastidip it the area and be done.. Then when getting out of my truck, I saw some sand on the ground. That's it, add some fine sand in between coats of plastidip. It would give a textured look of running boards, non slip surface, and it peels off if I don't like it.
See that I have both a can and spray can of the stuff laying around. I could spray a layer, sprinkle sand while it is wet and repeat. Or add sand to the liquid plastidip, stir well and then apply it to the door sills.
Not sure which method would work best. Premixing the sand to the plastidip would give a more even distrubution of sand throughout. But the application with brush/roller would be more of a pain. Verses layering the sand with spray plastidip is easier application, but potential uneven distrubtion of sand.
Hmm.. Is it 3:30pm yet? I want to go to my lab/garage and experiment already...
