Aluminum sucks for use around batteries. I would go hog-wild with the bed liner spray and glob the whole shooting match. Those rolls of no slid-em drawer liner rubber work great under the battery. Cheap and efficient. Two coats of bed liner, is plenty thick. Crop dust a box of Arm & Hammer over the cured bed-liner, lay down the no-skid matting and you'll have it by the short hairs.
I wouldn't be caught dead on my worst day trying to maintain the shine on one of those extruded metal boxes. Two days at the beach and they get uglier than a mile of mud fence. When a chip happens or whatever, a splotch of bed-liner makes it all good again.
Washed once a year for the last 4 years.
Wish I could take it to the beach :)
