Posted by: joea9146 Apr 18 2005, 08:07 AM

Anyone using the Spray on Bedliners in there Pickup trucks, How is it holding up and what brand did you use. Has anyone tried the DIY spray can liners and whats the quality of those and durability.... Thanks

I have http://www2.line-x.com/index.htm on my '01 Ford Supercrew. Got it sprayed on 3 days after I bought the truck, the next weekend picked up over 3,000 pounds of rock for my backyard (multiple trips of course )....5 years later the lining still takes plenty of abuse....I throw stuff back there with no regard to the liner......no problems at all.....

Herculiner is pretty good too. The spray-on DIY stuff isn't as good IMO. You get 1gal of Herculiner for $90. PLENTY to do your bed with. 2-3 coats, and it'll be tough as nails.

I used Herculiner on my F250 long bed, it took about 1 1/2 gallons to get good coverage. Also it seems to fade due to the sun. Other than that is tough as nails

I also caught a good buzz while applying the stuff

Yeah, the 1gal size is for a standard size bed. I did my 914 interior with 3 coats, and have 1/2gal left.

I primed/painted it too...

I had diamond liner upon the purchase of my truck. Tons of abuse and no complaints.

The cheap stuff just scratches and scrapes off. Newer materials are single part epoxy types that are similar to POR15 or single part floor paints -- VERY tough.

I am going to be doing my own with Herculiner or What A Liner and perhaps some sound deadening materials such as the cheap stuff from McMaster Carr or:

Just don't take a bathroom break during the application procedure.
