The same qualities that make corrosion molecules not be able to adhere to the stainless steel, are the same qualities that prevent paint from adhering. We are currently experimenting with different ways to basically electonically paint the bolts by changing the entire process, but as for right now there is no way to do it. It does not matter how well you prep the bolts, it doesn't not matter if you powder-coat them or what kind of paint you use, it will all chip off from simply driving down the road. Our bolts do use a slightly different finishing process that does remove a great deal of that "blinding shine" from it so that they are more of a dull stainless though, so other Jeeps can still see if you're driving towards them.
