Bedliner on door panels... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Mine looked like garbage, so I sprayed them with bedliner. The truck is about the get rebuilt , but 'til then this looks pretty good for $9. Pretty easy, figured I'd share.........

It looks like it came out like black dye. Did it leave or add any texture?

MYNAMEISMUD · 01-15-2012, 09:14 PM

It does add a slight texture. Kind of like a grip-taped skateboard, with paint on it. Really, perfect for the door panels.

Looks good, I like it.

Restrorob · 01-15-2012, 09:56 PM

I wiped it with Acetone, then hit it with Scotchbrite....then Acetone again. The first cleaning with Acetone is so you don't grind the crud in with the Scothbrite.

Now why couldnt you do the same thing with a dash pad? Trim up the cracks, fill them in with some sort of plastic body filler or such, then spray with bed liner. Couldnt you then use a something like Plastikote with color to go over the bed liner?

boy those look real good .....wonder if it would crack at -40 C
plastic coat i've used would still scratch

MYNAMEISMUD · 01-15-2012, 11:35 PM

@Motornut....I'm not sure about the temperature tolerances. I make it a habit to never go anywhere that the temp gets below freezing.....ever, no matter what

I used to you that stone chip gaurd stuff you would spray on the bottom half of you ext and down on the rockers panels when I built tweeters into the plastic pillars by the winshields. it gave a nice texture. I did the bedliner stuff on door panels before and in the heat it was very easy to scratch that stuff off

TheApocalyptican · 01-16-2012, 03:43 AM

Looks good.

Just as an fyi for anyone else who wants to do this....the rustoleum is better for less texture. In my experience(which is many cans)the duplicolor spray bedliner is much more textured than the rustoleum.

I have several Kawasaki Terex's , some of em were spay'd with Line-X.
grant'd I've had these here for right a year, the Line-X is peel'n off in sheet's. when it come's off it look's like they prep'd em good , it's just once a spot does break loose and the air can get to it spread's quickly.
