The Correct Way To Spray A Bedliner

by Bedliner Review
Hey guys, this is Matt with the YouTube channel bleep in Jeep. Today I want to show you how to install a truck bedliner. If you haven't been with us before, make sure to hit the subscribe button. We have new videos every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We have the best off-road, related how-to videos on the interweb alright. So the first thing that we're going to do is clean up the truck bed, in my case we're working on my own, I'm Tundra, and it has this factory rubber or plastic piece in there. We'Ve got to take all that out and then we're going to clean it up. So the products we're using today are from some products. I'Ll show you those in a second, but they make truck bed liners and all kinds of other stuff. So the first step is just to get everything out of there, get it really clean and then we're going to pressure wash it out. So in my case, I found some rust spots.

Happening guys, it's Tuesday guys are getting a double feature again today and feel police.

This contact lock, BS, I'm freakin YouTube. I try to get back to you guys and responses and it says that they, you have to enable contact lock or unable, and I don't know so.

I wouldn't do it to say my pickup truck personally, okay, but each each is to own and everybody has their ...

Are Truck Bed Swimming Pools A Good Idea?

by Bedliner Review
Bedliner brand ArmorThane has gone to the trouble of creating some complex graphics explaining why filling the bed of a pickup with water to create a mobile hot tub is unsafe and you shouldn't do it, no matter how "fun it looks on YouTube." Do not use a pickup bed as a swimming pool or mobile hot tub. A bedliner does not make a truck a purpose-built pool, and a viral demonstration is not evidence that the setup is safe. Water adds substantial weight: USGS lists approximately 8.33 pounds per US gallon . That means 100 gallons alone adds roughly 833 pounds, before people or other equipment. Ford explains that payload includes cargo and passengers . Use the specific vehicle’s loading label and owner’s manual, not an old graphic or a model-wide maximum, when checking carrying limits. The historical illustrations below are not current load ratings or instructions to attempt this.

Using Bedliner As Undercoating

Hey this Donnie Smith and I had a question emailed to me about undercoating, see the question says, comes from Paul and says hello. I just found your YouTube channel, I'm wondering if someone might be able to point me in the right direction here. I just bought a new car from the south and live in the Northeast. The underside of the car is in perfect condition and I'm looking to make sure it stays that way in the presence of chloride they use on the roads in the winter. The car is a 2004 g35 sedan. There is a little bit of factory undercoating underneath, but the vast majority of the underside is either paint or primer. I have the engine and the transmission out this weekend, so I would like to be able to do it this weekend. Do you have any recommendations as to what I should use? I'Ve heard that people are 15 should only be used on rust and it doesn't stick well to smooth surfaces. I'Ve heard epoxy primer and nothing else should be used. I'Ve heard epoxy pr...

Crappy Raptor Tint Bedliner

[, Music ] at a YouTube and welcome to this episode of the gunman. So this video here is a review and demonstration on the Raptor tentacle bedliner. It'S actually a pretty cool product and if you hang around for the rest of this video we'll have a good look at how it works and the kind of finishes that you can get with it. So I actually made this video quite some time ago, but I've never got around doing the editing, I'm just finally getting around to doing it. Now, there's a few things worth keeping in mind now the prep work can be relatively rough, so you can actually finish your prep work off with even 80 grit, if you like, because the material is so thick, it's going to do a lot of filling work. So this instance here I decided to use a mid to light gray non sanding primer. It'S gon na do a couple of things: it's gon na seal down all the bare metal and it's also gon na act as a bit of a ground color. So, like a bit of a ground coat color, if ...

What Is A Bedliner?

A bed liner is a useful truck accessory that can make work manageable while also prolonging the lifespan of a vehicle. However, there are many different options to consider when you're looking at different liner prototypes. You must make the right decisions to end up with a liner that will increase your fecundity sooner than hold you back when you're working with your truck. The following are six critical factors you need to consider when you're in the business for a bed liner. 1. Material Options Bedliners are made from a variety of diverse materials. The best content for your situation depends on the type of work you're doing with your truck and the reasons why you want a bedliner. Some truck owners want to have a liner put down for corrosion prevention alone. If you wish to avoid corrosion, you can use a spray-on coating that will seal out the moisture and salty elements that cause corrosion to develop. If you're pto do heavy-duty task with your tr...

Spray-on bedliner, explained by people who spray it

Armor that sticks.

Polyurea and polyurethane bedliners now protect far more than truck beds: trailers, van floors, bumpers, decks and heavy gear. Learn which system fits your job, then let an ArmorThane applicator spray it right.

Spray-onDrop-in vs spray-inOff-road & Jeep
Bonded, not dropped inSprayed liners adhere to the steel, so nothing traps water underneath.
SeamlessOne continuous membrane over seams, welds and stake pockets.
Custom textureFine to aggressive, set by the gun and the spray pattern.
ColorsTintable systems with UV-stable topcoats for outdoor color hold.
Why spray-in wins

Built for the abuse a work bed takes.

A plastic drop-in liner sits loose on the bed floor. Grit works under it, moisture sits against bare paint and the liner rattles at every bump. A professionally sprayed elastomer bonds directly to properly prepped metal and moves with it.

  • Impact resistance. Elastomeric films absorb dropped tools and cinder blocks instead of cracking.
  • Skid control. Cargo stays put on textured surfaces, even when wet.
  • Sound deadening. A dense coating quiets the hollow drum of an empty steel bed.

Applications

One coating, many jobs.

All applications
01

Vehicle armor

Bumpers, rocker panels, fender flares and full-body textured finishes for rigs that see brush and gravel.

02

Work surfaces

Cargo van floors, utility beds and service bodies that get loaded with tools and parts every single day.

03

Equipment and parts

Steel and aluminum components that need a tough skin against impact, abrasion and road salt.

04

Specialty projects

Boat decks, horse trailers, dog boxes and other surfaces where footing and durability matter.

How it works

From bare bed to armored in three moves.

Tell us the project

Send ArmorThane the vehicle or surface, its size and how it gets used. Photos help an applicator judge prep.

Get matched locally

A trained applicator near you reviews the job and recommends a system, thickness and texture.

Prep, spray, cure

The surface is cleaned, abraded and masked, then sprayed in passes. Fast-set polyurea is ready for light use quickly.

Polyurea vs polyurethane

Pick the chemistry, not the hype.

Pure polyurea sets in seconds and shrugs off moisture during application. Polyurethane liners cure slower, which can mean easier touch-ups and a softer feel. Hybrids blend the two to balance cost and performance.

PolyureaFast set, tough, tolerant of humidity during spraying.
PolyurethaneSlower cure, flexible, simple to repair in spots.
HybridA middle path many shops use for everyday beds.
Aliphatic topcoatKeeps color from chalking in strong sun.

Questions

Common questions.

What's the difference between polyurea and polyurethane liners?

Polyurea cures very fast and is generally very tough; polyurethane liners usually cure more slowly and can be more flexible or easier to touch up. Hybrids blend the two.

Can bedliner coatings go on plastic parts?

Some plastics can be coated with the right prep and adhesion promoter. Ask the applicator to test or specify the system for that plastic.

Is texture adjustable?

Yes. Spray technique and settings change the texture from fine to coarse, so ask to see samples.

Do these coatings come in colors?

Many systems can be tinted, and UV-stable topcoats help the color last outdoors.

Can I coat a whole vehicle?

Many off-road owners do. It requires careful masking, disassembly of trim and a skilled applicator.

Is a roll-on kit the same thing?

No. Consumer roll-on kits are different products and typically build a thinner film than professional spray systems.
