From what I've seen herculiner has the grit factor to it for anti slip and the bed armour looks like its more impact resistant but no grip to it

[Chris]

If that is the case the bed armour would be best for Danny's rockers right?

I would say so. But around here herculiner is $30 less than the bed armour. Both seem to be great products. Just depends on what your preference is.

 

I think bed armour also has kevlar fibers or something like that in it which makes it stronger

Prep as in sanding? Not looking to do any of that. I know the line x guys just spray it on.

[LongrangeLauber]

Have to when applying to a glossy surface. Take a scuff pad to rough it up. If not it won't stick. My prep work is getting out surface rust spots

[Chris]

Dan, the duplicolor can be sprayed by you

[kstruckcountry]

Yeah I figured Chris. I just didn't want to do any sanding. What do you guys think would work best for roughing it up? It'd be a good thanksgiving project.

[LongrangeLauber]

Follow the instructions on the can of bed liner. It will most likely be a green scuff pad. I'm pretty sure the herculiner came with one

[kstruckcountry]

Yep I just checked, comes with scuff pad and everything else I'll need but masking supplies.

I used duplicolor bed armor I rolled on a whole gallon after prepping and it sucks. Don't use it if you intend on actually using your bed. It all comes off and it's not thick. The gallon is enough for an 8 foot bed my 5'8" bed should have had plenty of thickness.

I called duplicolor a gallon is good for 6 ft. I would need an extra qt. I plan on spraying it not rolling.

I'm debating on ripping out the stock bed liner and sending it to line-x. Decisions decisions.

That worries me Sarah. It definitely needs to hold up. Definitely not paying $600 for it though. That is ridiculous for some bedliner on the cab on any budget. I may stop by Rhino Liner sometime and see what they would charge.
