    Is there a special paint or procedure if I want to have the aluminum stepboard painted? Would an ordinary paint be easily chipped off since this accessory is always stepped on?

    TIA

    Hi Drave,

    Painting aluminum is different from painting other metals.

    There is a specific procedure that you have to follow or the paint job will either flake off or not look nice at all.

    Look to people who do aluminum works for a living to see what has to be done.

    I'm not sure what all this will entail so I'm afraid that I can't be of more help.

    If you find out how it's done and where, please do post it here so everyone can benefit from your experience.

    Good luck.

    try powder painting...it is a specialized painting procedure and is quite durable than regular spray painting.
