Newdelta Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Does anyone else's boot stops wear through their paint. I had my worn areas repainted last year and they have done it again! Is there an alternative stop available as at the moment I am using vinyl stickers but they only last about 6 months before the stops eat through them.

0 Nello Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 I'll check mine out and report back but I've not noticed anything.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lucky Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Mine have some small marks, but not as much as yours. I don't have my Delta avaliable right now so I cant check, but the rubber stoppers that make the marks can be easily adjusted? Isnt it just rubber screws (like on the hood)? Maybe its a bit to tight, try to screw them a bit further in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Newdelta Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I may try it the other way and screw them out, perhaps they are not exerting enough pressure so are moving as I drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nello Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Any updates on this? I checked mine and they are actually worse than yours! Paint skimmed off the surface. I'll see how it goes and apply some paint to prevent any corrosion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 twe Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Yep noticed mine going through the paint, not as bad as yours though. Will have to paint them and put something to protect them, or put a white sticker like you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
Newdelta
Does anyone else's boot stops wear through their paint.
I had my worn areas repainted last year and they have done it again!
Is there an alternative stop available as at the moment I am using vinyl stickers but they only last about 6 months before the stops eat through them.
