Getting a bedliner!
My dad's getting me an Inyati spray-in bedliner for my '70 as a sliiightly early birthday present. (Appointment is Fri, my birthday is Sunday. Heh.)
Anyway...I'll probably still call them to make sure, but is there any prep work I should do, aside from maybe just washing the bed? I want it sanded out at least some, the last coat of paint is kinda crappy and they painted over stuff they should've washed off, like a bird turd, and some spilled superglue residue that should've been sanded off if a block had ever touched my truck like they said it would...

When I had mine done they said I did'nt need to do anything to it. But I got some wax and silicone remover and used that. I got it from space age paint on Country Club and Broadway in Mesa.

Ditto on photos. I've been considering having mine sprayed and am very interested in how your's turns out.

Don't mean to steal the post but I have been looking at some Herculiner at Orschlen's Farm and Home. I think its about $80 for the kit and $40 for just the stuff you put on.

I was going to do the Herculiner thing, but decided that it would be too much time and went with a spray-on Speedliner from a local truck accessory store. I just got it today but it looks awesome, very professional.

No project ever goes smoothly...
It turns out that the inside of the bed was, well, basically never prepped period when they painted it (surprise, they painted over bird poop!!!) and it peels off from compressed air. So I've got to wait another week before I can get it all done because I need to get it sandblasted now...argh.
