Re: Bed liners/undercoating

you may wanna wait until you paint your truck first, cause the overspray, atleast for the inside of your bed. i used herculiner or dupli-coat from wal mart. looks pretty good on the bed, very easy to use too.
on a side note.. i tried the cheap route first and used undercoating on the inside of my bed, well it looked great until it sit outside a few days, guess it was the sun, it faded terrible.

Re: Bed liners/undercoating

I am in the process of using the Plasti-kote brand that I bought at Walmart. I am going to attempt a second coat tonight. The first coat I did last night seemed like it would turn out a good product. I have material left so i thoguht I would just do a second coat. Do not bother with the spray can version, there is no comparrison between the spray and the gallon of roll on material, at least in the brand I bought. I will update you all on my findings. If I take pictures I may need someone to host them if there is an interest.
