Bed Rails?

My dad has a 1993 F150 & already has some tubular bed rails on it but they are rusting/peeling the cheap tin like plating.

Could these be "rechromed" or would it be cheaper to just replace them?

Thanks!

Probably better off either replacing them, or blasting them and poweder coating them.

Powder!!!!!!! If you're close enough to Memphis that shipping isn't outrageous, I can probably get them powdered for less than you could rattle-can them.

Buy a set of Putco Stainless-Steel Lockers and be done with it. That will be the last time you ever have to worry about your bed bars.
