Ya whatever.

Steel will rust, painted or not, given time.
Just use the Fricking grade 8's and replace them every year. It isn't that expensive and takes less than 15 minutes to do
I can guarantee you that you don't want to wait until the "oh $hit" factor hits before you realize that what you coulda and shoulda done....but didn't.

Use G-8 only!!!
Do NOT use stainless!!!!
I put a little Anit-Seize on mine so the next time I want to take them out I have no problems. Works great...
Trust me
What if the grate breaks loose?? I was told that the boat would take a serious nose dive. I not only used grade 8 directly from Copper state bolt company, went the next size larger from stock Berkeley. I drilled all the way through and tapped, then put lock nuts on the top side. Don't want to take chances.
If the loader comes loose when you are running hard, you will probably crash in one way or another depending on how fast your ride is. At the very least, you will tear up the pump when it tries to digest the steel loader. I watched a cheyenne tunnel leave the water, turn sideways in the air, and land and barrell-roll when his loader broke apart at around 80. another friend's cheyenne took a hard turn and tossed him out at around 80 when his loader came loose. another friend blew the pump suction peice into bits and sunk his boat when his loader came loose. it's not fun.

settle down beavis. the man is just trying to help. of course the bolts will eventually rust even with paint on them but it'll take a lot longer.
