I am looking at doing the exterior only, and wrapping around the tops of the drawers and under the lips, where most of the wear would occur from dirty hands opening the drawers. The tricky part will be doing around the edge guards and the 'slide lock' pieces, but the slide locks can be easily taken off and re-installed in mere minutes.

I used some of that spray on/roll on bedliner stuff about 12 years ago and it looked good when it was finished, but is way too thick for doing the tops of the drawer handles, as you already mentioned the clearance issues. Also, the bedliner requires scuffing and sanding of the original surface, which I am trying to avoid. This would be a temporary application, as to avoid damaging the painted surfaces till I can get out of the shop scene(~3-5yrs).
