I'm moving my budbuilt lower shock skids to a different vehicle and would like to refinish them before the installation.
I figured the powder coat would be sturdy enough to protect the metal underneath, but they got pretty sandblasted on the forward facing surface.
What do people recommend for refinishing that might be more durable? I don't think regular paint would hold up. How about bed liner?
As a side note, if you live in rust country, pay the extra for the stainless. I got the mild steel powder coated ones instead of the stainless ones that I should have (penny wise, pound foolish). If I were doing it over, I'd pay the extra and get stainless.
