crank protection

I have an KH24 and I've been trying some crank grabs and a few grinds, but they seem to be scratching up my cranks quite a bit. so i need some kind of protective something. I was thinking of grip tape, but that has an obvious disadvantage for grinds. so maybe some of that metal duct tape? any suggestions?

Think of it as being like a skateboard truck... they are meant to be grinded.

The damage is 95% aesthetic.

Don't worry about it.
