.. . .

You could put some grooves or flutes across the ramp with a router and
re-seal it. They wouldn't need to be that deep to improve traction.

I was going to say that! You beat me to it. It would look nice too. Only
problem is it could be a place for water to sit. Maybe drill a 1/4" weep



Don't cut horizontal grooves, cut chevrons, or a diamond pattern,
like isometric graph paper.
