Best spray can bed liner
I'm building a set of rock sliders this weekend. I plan to paint them with a spray can bed liner. Which one is best? Application tips? I've never used this stuff before. Thanks all.

Duplicolor Bed Armour Truck Bed Coating is good stuff. Expensive though, for what you get in a rattle can.

You might wanna coat the top in bedliner and the bottom is normal spray paint.Reason i say this this the bottom is gonna get scratched up and spray paint is easier to touch up.

Prep is the key for a good outcome with any kind of paint/bedliner. Clean surface, prime and paint.
Good thing about bed liner spray is that its relatively easy to touch up areas if needed due to the texture.

Agreed. Bed liner on top and regular spray paint on the sides and bottoms.

The wife is the reason I'm putting the sliders on the Jeep. It's lifted 5" w/ 33s, she catches hell getting in and out of it. My thought is it's better to be cautious exiting and risk scratching her leg than to slip getting in it and bust her butt.
In the past I have used Rustoleum products with good results. My plan is to spray them with clean metal primer and then top coat with the bed liner spray.

Correct. I bedlined sliders with high-texture rubberized 2-part epoxy. It was very rubbery so I figured it would be OK, I was wrong. Wife's leg slid across it and she got upset. One day my leg slid on it and I understood why she was upset.

Steve,
What is the measurement between the pipe and square tube? I'm building mine and am waffling on that measurement.

Hey BI, I sent you a PM back this morning...mine look like 4" center to center, with around 2.75" gap between the 2 tubes.

I use Rustoleum flat black on the bumpers and other things that get scratched up a lot and if my sliders (came powder coated) do will use it on them also easy and cheap.
