Clean running boards

[DINOZR]

Hell, I don't even have a Raptor so I'm just guessing!

Did I miss something? I thought you got one delivered recently?

Well kind of. It's 1100 miles from me and I haven't seen it yet. 10/23 is D Day.

Hey @NASSTY - you got a linky for those overlays???

On my 2017 I just washed the running boards with car wash soap and water whenever I washed the truck. The running boards never really looked clean and as the OP described they looked greyish. I only used soap and water on my 2020 until last week when I decided to hit them lightly with tire foam and wipe them off. They look much better now, more like matte black and surprisingly they aren't really slippery. This pic was originally taken to show off my latest bling mod (overlays), but it also shows my nice clean matte black running boards.

Any particular tire foam that you used?

Some tire shines will make them slick as hell so choose wisely.

Tire Foam, but warn people getting in and out, or just keep it muddy and know one will care about the running boards

Jet Black by Turtle Wax makes a detail spray that works great, to restore that black finish without any slick surfaces to it. I use it on my ADD bumpers as well.

I got mine from cjponyparts. https://www.cjponyparts.com/america...s-steel-pair-f-150-raptor-2017-2019/p/772095/
I got the idea from this thread. https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/running-board-semi-custom-raptor-emblem.76461/

Dang I can’t believe it’s really on it’s way.
