I added aluminum strut under the stand. Painted with 5 coats of paint. I rubber coated the clevis hangers, and swapped out the all thread and hardware with nylon. Only exposed metal are the spring nuts. I tried to rubber coat them, which turned out great, but they wouldn't slide into the channel. I may use some black silicone and cover them... not sure yet.
I also found sch 40 clear pvc for the emergency drains. I like how it turned out and its leak free.
