In my opinion the best of them all.
how much do you think it would take to do the whole heep in this 2 kits or you think one is enough i have been looking into doing the heep for a while with this stuff tinted white or is it clear and can be sprayed over the color on the jeep. and how long for dry time a few days or so or less to cure

I think they say one kit does 120 sq/ft? If you are not doing the inside then two kits will do the whole outside for sure.

I think it is a white color and you have to add a urathene base color to make it match yours. If you are not going to mix the tinted one than get the black. It will only look right if you mix the base and the liner.

X2 make sure yopu prep the edges well i scuffed mine up with some sand paper but on the edges i kinda just left the clearcoat alone but now little bits are starting to flake. I mean its no big deal i can touch it up but learn from my mistake.

Right after i finished




Now after a few washes and direct hits with a powerwasher little peices began to chip up around the edges this is the best pic i have but you can see it on the wheel wells the jagged egde



Other than that problem I love the bedliner. HTH!

I'm sure the rattle cans will do OK. I just like the look and reliability of a spray on that is more like a rhino liner or line-X.

The cost of qwikliner is around $250-$300.Qwikliner has 1/8"thickness and a lifetime warranty against chipping,peeling or cracking.

That is the way that The U-Pol Raptor kit comes out looking when you are done for $100 and you have the gun that you can use for other jobs like undercoating.

XJ?2010, why did your bed liner chip, you didn't sand all the way to the very edge of the masking tape before spraying?
