Location: Oconto Falls, WI | My boat is an aluminum boat so I don’t worry about the scratches. One of the reasons I own an aluminum boat as I don’t need to worry about every little thing in terms of scratches, rock dings (my cabin is on a gravel road), etc… So I can’t answer your question about the debris. I would assume that any debri that accumulates on the strips is coming from your boat (since the strips would be covered when the boat is on them) so it would have scratched anyway if you just had carpeted bunks.
I know my strips are all gouged up and such due to the rivets on my hull, but the strips still look fine. When you run your boat up on sand/rocks all the time on shore due to nature calling the strips are the least of your worries!
