Practicality and cosmetics will probably be inverse. You choose.
A nice shiny surface will look good every day and easy to clean, but a little water or oil could lead to a cracked bumper or hip.

Generalized key to good results is getting the surface grease/spot free to a half inch, stabilizing the temperatures and humidity, drying completely, using 2-part chemicals applied properly and using an anti-slip agent like sand, waiting two weeks to even walk on it with socks........and then hoping the chemicals are of quality.

Why not permanently attach a load-dispersing, non-scratching surface such as wood to the bottom of your $20 cheap jackstands?
