Herculiner

MCourson · July 23, 2004

We tried it out on the back part of our trailer floor. Hopefully it will be a lot better than the friggin tiles we had. Its not dry yet but here is a pic. We will see how it holds...

That's not a bad idea...I inherited my uncle's 96 Wells Cargo enclosed trailer that he used to haul harleys in. It's a little roughed up and right now I'm using it to store my lawn equipment and transport it to do Grandma's and my folks' places. I also do haul my bike in it when I have to, but that'd be a nice solution to give the floor some more protection and time. What's that stuff run?

It was $89 for the kit which came with a gallon and the rollers and such but we also had to go buy another quart for $32. So total we have about $125, thats a lot better than the couple grand that a friend was quoted to have his sprayed.

2 grand for sprayin liner

I hope that came with the industrial size vasoline

cause they were gonna stick it to ya bigtime

Anyway looks like like a great job ya did there. I have used herculiner twice on a weird application seems to be holding up just fine. I put it on top of a clubcar utility cart with metal cab. at work our vehicles are parked next to our cooling towers. the chemicals in that stuff EATS paint. liner is going strong.

He has a pretty big trailer (not sure how long but I think around 24') and he was going up the walls too so it was going to be a big job.

sorry MCourson I guess being a mechanic in the private sector I just get shocked at some of the prices charged in the real word. I haven't priced liner in the real world but kinda had an idea what a truck bed cost to do. I know there is quite a bit of labor involved taping things off. spraying is the easy part. I also know what that stuff cost even at my cost . just kinda a shock to the system. funny thing is people would balk at the $12000 in parts I have in my v8 sblazer and I didn't even blink an eye. I can only imagine what the labor price would be if i put the same amount of hours as mine has in someone elses. the private sector has me so spoiled I don't think I could handle a REAL job. I am a ASE certified mater tech in automotive and medium heavy truck. working for a university in an Air conditioned shop. I guess if anyone needs directions in Gravy I'm the man.

anyway hope I didn't offend. have a good one
