Durabak DIY Bedliner

[RAMviperIFFIC]

After seeing the pictures of "Tubbed my Bed" thread, I knew I wanted to put some bedliner in my 10. Having good success with "Durabak 18" in my Jeep for over 10 years of top off 4-wheeling abuse, I was confident of their product quality and thought I would try their product again. Durabak 18 comes as a UV protected mixture. I got their "bright red". 1 gallon was enough to put a good 2 coats on. Saturday was spent disassembling, sanding and a thourough wash. Sunday was a Xylene rub-down and application and reassembly. My investment is about $180 in supplies.:rock:

Good Stuff!

The kit comes with (2) special rollers. You supply a soft bristle brush to dab into corners and hard to get at areas(under the lip). 2 Coats is probably about 1/16-1/8 inch thick. You can, however, put on as many coats as you like as their is no limit to the maximum thickness. I put two coats in my Jeep, wheeled through the mud, rocks, sand, sun, snow. Threw spare parts (axle shafts, drive shafts) into the interior and it never blemished or faded. The inside of the jeep was done in black.

The great thing is that 1 gallon of this stuff only weighs 8 lbs!

Cheers!

I pulled out my plastic liner and couldn't stand all of the scratches and scuffs everywhere. I guess my 10 is a "poser" for a pick-up, as it only...............................

I can believe it...

Sprayed-in bedliners, as advertised to protect from denting when dropping large chunks of concrete, must be sprayed on pretty thick to give some added structural integrity. I don't know about 300 lbs, but I'm sure when it is thick it weighs a significant amount more than mine.

I likey!

Seriously though, the grey rug looks good, but like any rug, they just don't ever fit just right. (Yeah, think Toupe') Besides, I have no Tounneau and my friends spend lots of time keeping their bed pine needle free. :nurse:
