I took mine down to bar metal using 36 grit sand paper. Repaired any rust put sean sealer on my welds and cleaned everything with acetone. Then painted with self etching primer. I let that dry then clean the primer again with acetone. I also masked everything but you might not have to if it is spray on. Once cleaned and masked I sprayed the liner and let dry. Looks great!

i did this myself back a few months. i didnt do that much fo prep besides sanding it down removed rust spots,and taped off the edges of my trim and whatnot. it was well worth what work i put into it. there aint too much more noise,exept for when your on a gravel road and your tires sling up rocks on your under carrige. but you also might want to put down some engine enamel on it too if your bedliner is gonna be real gritty. its not necessary,but it makes it 10x easier to clean.
