I done a couple 'do it your self' bed liners...if you buy the spray cans...it goes on very thin....with a quart or gallon....you can use a trim roller and brush and lay it on thick. My knowledge of spraying, I'd think you'd need to thin the quart down a lot to spray it on.

The fluid tip on a spray gun is way too small to spray bed liner though. You'll need an under coat gun or something similar.

Duplicolor sells a kit that includes the gun.

Problem is besides the gun tip...roll on liner is made to be rolled on... not sprayed on. The kit mentioned above would be your best choice or line-X
