Just as long as it is skuffed a bit, a good rule of thumb is if it isnt shiny then it is good, but if it is shiny then sand some more. I am not sure about bedliner though. My neighbor who owns a body shop just told me to rough it up enough so the bed liner has something to "stick" to.

Nice then i should be about set then. Thats what i thought too if its not shiny then its good because theres very little shine just a little on the edges and little dents.

Very nice, are you doing the bed rails too, or leaving them? I'll be doing the same this summer too, or at least when it starts to warm up and we have some clear weather for a few days.
