I recently acquired some rock rails and wanted to paint them. I though about just doing one of those Rust Oleum paint jobs.. I figure they are going to get beat up anyway.. easy touch up Then some one suggested I get them powder coated. Then some one counter suggested I get them powdercoated because its not worth the money because they are just going to get beat up any way. Any thoughts, or suggestions on other products to use? |

Some like the Hammerite finish I have a '05 so I used flat black Rustoleum because I think it matches the lower trim better. Have to touch it up after each run as you noted, touching up powdercoating would be a pain. |

On my Super Skinks, I've got two coats of Rustoleum primer and two coats of Rustoleum Hammered Black. As others say, I wouldn't bother powder coating because it'll probably just chip off. Rustoleum is really cheap and easy to touch up with a spray can and actually looks pretty good. |

Get them galvanized, then paint them. No more rust worries. just touch up paint when needed. |
