I've seen raptor liner mentioned a few times. Is it as strong as line x? When are you considering doing this?

Raptor liner as well...already have the kit. I will be spraying.

You will not beat Linex....I have seen the abuse Tim's bed takes.

But if you want a DIY price, you can't beat Raptor or Monstaliner....or SEM.

I would prefer to spray as well. Think that will make it a little easier to get into the wells without having to take everything apart.



*EDIT*

Found a kit that gives 125 sqft of coverage for $120

Got mine for free. I called them and explained my experience with Duplicolor bedliner and they said to use theirs and put on all the forums how much better they are, and I can have it.

I said...SWEET!

To be honest...It will be a while. I do not want to do it till my body mods are done. Than means fenders, sliders, bumpers. Late summer at the earliest.

Fritz, any catalyzed urethane based liner is the best you can get in DIY format. Nowhere near the durability of direct intermixed exothermic set polyurea *rhinoliner, LineX*

Just be sure to do your homework and read up on manufacturer recommended prepping and you can shoot the DIY in your driveway with the right equipment and a bit of beer

Thanks for the input gents. Does appear I'll need to sort out a couple things before I can give this a shot. it certainly seems like if you can get a few people together it would be pretty easy to knock out a few vehicles in one day

I have used the Sem Rock-it. Comes with an applicator gun in every kit. Haven't done body panels just a few bed boxes. Wire brush in a drill and scuff everything up, wire tape and masking paper, wax and grease remove, mix and shoot took about 3 hours by myself. Dries hard enough to walk on in a few hours *depending on ambient air temp/humidity. Urethanes and epoxies dont like it when its below 65F. I have a good air setup if you guys want to use it.
