I would like to repaint my new to me tree stands they are faded and i would like to camo them in where they would be harder to see if someone would be walking threw the woods.
Does anyone have any advice on some good rust proof paint?

I order mine directly from them. Just make sure you prep the surface and don't paint in the cold. The nozzle stops up if paint is cold.

I am going to try to "paint" mine with some bed liner spray I bought at walmart. My hope is it will reduce noise when I do "clang" something against it.

I'll let you know. Someone told me that is pretty much what the Summit "dead metal" stands are coated with. I don't know that for sure, as I have never handled one of them.

I've used the spray bedliner stuff uite a bit, it's not a bad choice - but it's not near as durable as the powdercoat that comes on stands from the factory.

I put the felt pads that go on the bottom of furniture legs on the contact points of my climber when carrying in and out. Works really good.
