Make sure your tape isn't on the caps or it will peel off a lot. Looks good though! No imperfections.

Post pic if you don't mind.

It's not real hard to take the bed rails off, then you'll be able to paint them a lot easier and better

How do these spray on bedliner products clean up?
Do you have to scrub them more than other surfaces to get them clean?
Seems like they would want to hold onto dirt more

For my truck all I do is use and pressure washer no scrubbing required and yes my truck bed is also coated lol not just the outside haha I like to throw some dishwasher soap on there sometimes if I trying to get it perfect and then just pressure wash away
