New trim

So getting ready to put new trim on new paint on a k15 and was wondering if anyone has tried to seal or fill the trim to keep mud and debris out of it. You know, you wash it then crap gets behind it then it just runs down streaking the paint and stuff. Especially when you have alot of pollen ect. I am also not going to use the end screws. I filled all the holes and now I have changed my mind and will be putting the trim back on.

I'm sure the backside of the trim could be filled and leveled with some type of epoxy... but gol dang that would be tedious, time consuming and expensive.

Honestly though, here's how I look at it. If you actually care about the paint, it needs to be washed often and properly. That includes spraying the trim to wash out any debris behind it. If the truck gets washed properly often enough, nothing will ever build up behind the trim.
