Nope. It’s like sandpaper and still grippy in rain. Google suggests it got the name back in the day of horses, it was slippery to the horseshoes. Makes sense.

Sandstone is gonna have a laYer of loose sand particles on top because it’s not very durable which is what makes it “slippery”. Whereas a rock like granite is just gonna always have bite
