Skid plate - paint?

Picked up some used skid plates for the X today. Thinking about getting them painted before install. Bedliner? POR15? other? What did you use/suggest?

POR15 works well. I'm currently stripping mine to apply POR and then some bedliner as a top coat. It'll get scraped off the first ride down concession, I'm sure lol.

Will you be keeping the skids on all year around?

Not necessarily. For winter they better have a good paint or coating. I take a couple off of mine to inspect and repaint if necessary.

POR15 says you should top coat it because UV rays will degrade it, I know they're under the truck but knowing my luck it'll still find a way to happen.

Montreal is the main office. Talked to the guy and it arrived a few days later.

You can get it at canadian tire (some stores have it) or Partsource. It's pricey but it does actually work.

Just got a few cants of eastwood internal frame coating for the pathfinder. Gotta keep that baby solid!
