Ryan, I’ve had really good luck using 2” UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight) polyethylene tape at all contact areas. It is translucent so original surface shows through. While not completely hidden, it looks so much better than the abrasion marks. Clean the surface well before adhering and it will give you years of protection.
