What paint on concrete floors in garden? + Outside of the house

[OM2]

Last year we had just over a meter of concrete laid in front of the back of the house + a path to an outbuilding.

What paint should I use? I would like something that is really grainy and coars that will add texture. When it rains it becomes dangerously slippery because we had levelling mix put down by the builders.

Also need to paint the outside of the house... I didn't paint last year because it was winter...

I called Sandtex about painting the outside of the house... and they told me it was best to wait till the summer. For the outside... I was going to use Sandtex - because I can't find any other choices?

What can I use? I would like brilliant white. I've seen on other peoples houses - it looks really nice and doesn't hold dirt. I'm assuming the Santex will give me the same properties?

Thanks.

Can’t see any floor paint lasting long outside.

I remember my dad using something called Resincoat I think it was? It lasted 4 or 5 years without problems but as soon as you get the first few flakes, the whole lot starts to come up.
