Running boards
This may be the wrong place to asked this but I wasn't sure where else to ask. I have chrome running boards on my 2020 F150 that have the black rubber steps. The black rubber at the drivers door is deforming and cracking. Is there something I can spray over them or coat them with that will stop this? They are after market running boards that are no longer made. You get what you pay for!!!

I linexed my running boards on my old Raptor. Looked great and lasted. As long as there's no rust, you should be good.

Ours has a clear-coat on them that has started to peel. I've been considering taking them off, cleaning them up (maybe bead blasting?), and coating them with an after-market bed liner material.

What did they charge you for that? Did you R&R the running boards yourself, or did they do them on the truck?

I found a product called 'Herculiner'. It's parent company is J-B Weld. It's a spray in bed liner and says it can be used for other applications. I'm thinking about trying it. Anyone know anything about this product?

I used it to line the floor in my Scout. Results were meh. Don't use it in your garage. The fumes are terrible. Eastwood has a product I've heard good things about it seems.
