So I have been slowly bedlining the outside of my cherokee and thought I would post some pics. Its just bed liner in a can from Vato Zone, but looks great! The paint on the hood was still wet which is why it looks a little funky...

I dont know if the price is the same everywhere, but one can is 8.99 here in washington, and that gave me enough to almost do both fenders. I still need to do a few touch ups on the fender that I ran out of my first can on. But yeah, the main reason I did it is because of how easy the touch up is. Cant wait to finish it, just waiting to have some more cash laying around for another can...

Its spray on, literally bed liner in a rattle can. Great stuff, and after a day on the trails so easy to just spray up the scratches and spots that got ****ed up!

Its rough textured, enough to where **** sticks to it. But my hose with a handle takes all the dirt off no problem.

ive used this stuff before it great something else to try
use rubberized undercoating that dries more rubbery as a base coat then use two coats of this stuff on top of that... its spendy but ive only done it on lower panels.... it works great rocks just bounce off it
