Default Roll On Bed Liner

Does anyone know how much Roll On Bed Liner it would take to coat my whole cherokee. Its 1990 Cherokee Laredo. I found it on ebay by the gallon for $45. I figure it would last longer than a paint job. Am I over looking any downsides

I am also about to purchase some bedliner to do my rockers. I think that it would depend on how many coats you plan on doing. My guess would be three to four and if you had leftover you could use it for patching in the future.

If you buy it by the gallon, it will come out thicker and probably harder to rinse off. The Raptor kit is a good one but it costs like $120. Looks really nice though. I used the Dupli-Kote on my interior. Instead of rolling it on, I sprayed it w/an undercoating gun. I like the way it turned out, but don't think I'd want that rough a texture for the outside. The aerosol spray looks good on the outside.

With the undercoating gun, I was able to spray 5 coats on the footwells and cargo area. 2 coats everywhere else. I had about 1/8 - 1/4 gallon left. Ck out my write up.

The amount of bedliners to be used will depend of what you will use on applying it and how thick you're gonna spread on your vehicle...
