My truck is 3 years old, the bed has some light scratches in it from regular use (I tried to be somewhat careful). I am considering the Bed Tred bed liner as an alternative to having a spray in done. My question is, anyone install one of these or a bedbug over a lightly used bed? Imagine it would be a good idea to hit the scratches with some paint before install? Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated, thank you

Thanks Mike thats what Im thinking, clean it uo and hit some spots and put the liner in.

My bed was slightly used but still fairly new paint condition wise, the bedtred mounts using sticky Velcro strips in certain locations, just use the prep pads that come with it to make the spots clean. Super easy install.

Thanks RNL, your pic was one that got me real interested in this option. My paint is in good shape too, was just curious about the prep, or what others have experienced. Hows it holding up?

Still good as new. Of course I do have a tonneau cover so that probably helps. The hardest part of install was putting the load cleats back on as you have to puncture the liner and push them hard against the bedtred to get the bolts started. Once the bolts start a couple threads just run them down.

I have a plastic liner and a Bed Rug. I would get another Bed Rug because its easy on the knees looks good and easier to move things around.

Do you still have the tonneau cover? Would you be willing to ship it?
