    I have a 98 kenworth with 34 inch battery boxes. They are very crappy looking and almost too far gone i think. Truck was just painted and want it to look nice. Was wondering what others have done and would suggest. Skinz? New boxes? Have the old ones polished and brought back?

    What do you think? Anyone used skinz? From who?

    stock box is made of steel, and may look really rusty. I tested many products for rusty parts and I'd say the best is hammerite. I use to brush old rust and paint with brush ore with sandblaster but no reason to clear from rust fully. Use hammerite on rust and rusty parts look like new. I used this paint on rusty frames too

    I have the Roadskns box and battery covers on and think they look and fit good.
    they do good work, you will need to send them a out line of them to match.
    Also have used there tank wraps.
