I have all the stuff to roll my bed liner tomorrow. I've done it before, but just was curious if someone had something I haven't head before. Wish me luck :nunchuk1:

Has anyone used a grinder with a wire brush on the bed for prepping purposes?

 

uhhh...how about dont do it? A roll in bedliner is a huge waste of money what with all the massive fading, chipping and peeling

 

Dont know much about the roll on bed liner, but my spray in Line-X Ultra is so nice looking












not going to lie it cost alot around $400, wonder why you cant buy the same stuff they spray with and just do it your self, its gotta be more labor than product that you pay for when you get a spray in.

 

For a work truck roll your own is cool.I would go spray on for a nice truck.I did my company truck with wire wheel it worked ok but the **** faded like a **** and peeled in a few spots.

 

Yea I've heard of that happening, but I've done it to a friends truck and it held up great. Everyone on here seems to hate on the roll in type. I kind of want to do it myself, not only to save money but just to give it a shot on my own truck. During hunting season I use the bed of my trucks so it's not just for looks by any means.

Yea, I hear what you're saying. Not so sure mine is really that nice. lol Half of the year it is a work truck. I'll sleep on it and see what I decide to do in the morning.

 

I would roll it on kinda thick. Ive seen some people who just roll it like its paint. It turns out so thin it just tears off when stuff hits it.

 

That does look KILLER!!!
I've been tossing the idea around of doing the same to mine as well. (Maybe the color coded liner to match the color of the truck.) Exactly the way I would do mine. The whole bed, EXCEPT, for the side rails and I would do the rear rail near the back window. Looks nice man!!

 

Prep work! Take your time, and when you think you've finished spend thirty more minutes. I did one of my trucks awhile back, was happy with it for about a month. Then the black turned gray and it started to chip.

My opinion is to save the cash and get Line-X, or get Al's liner it's a better product than Herculiner. http://www.alsliner.com/

 

Alright. You guys have talked me out of it. Guess I'll wait and shell out the cash. It's easy to spend someone elses money I guess.
