has anyone ever tried the roll on line-x for your truck bed you can buy at wal mart? been thinking about doing my bed

 

Not really familiar with it, but a co-worker of mine did it on his last 2 trucks and loves it. I've seen the one he just done and it looks good, if that textured look and durability is what your looking for. Mine is just a big trunk so I got a Bed Rug.

 

I used a product called grizzly grip and did the interior tub of my bronco with it. Its just like any another paint product- a good finish is all in the prep job (surface prep, tape, etc). Just followed the instructions and it turned out nice.

 

Go to Line-x....Get the regular old Line-x and not the premium product. Let them do it. It will look good and have a warranty.

 

My neighbor did the diy bedliner in his f150 and it came out nice. The kit came with a scouring pad to rough it up which worked to scuff up the finish and clean it. He is not a real handy guy but followed instructions and got a nice job. It is holding up well, and would be ok for most homeowners who use their trucks for occasional "fetchin and haulin".

They are alright but the roll on kits are a fraction of what line-x will be thickness wise. Look at Raptor U-pol

 

I did the Herculiner in my '01. Looked nice for a while then it faded and got chalky looking. Did not hold up very well either. By the time I sold it in '09 I could have paid for Linex counting the number of times I had to touch it up. When I got my '10, Linex was one of the first things I did.

 

From what I have expierenced the roll on liners look good at first, but the product wears out much faster than rhino or linex. I installed a roll on liner on the bow of our boat after doing all of the needed prep work. It lasted about a year and a half before it started fading and chipping off. the price to have it professinonaly done is well worth the money.

 

I am applying Bed Armour tomorrow and will let ya know how it goes.

 

That was in October.. Guess it didn't go so well?
