If this isnt the right section i apologize, it was the best i could think to put it!
So i've decided to bed line my entire jeep on the outside what is the best brand i should use and spray-on vs roll-on?

I imagine it would take a couple gallons of bedliner to do it yourself. Two gallons of monstaliner is like $240.
1. line-x
2. monstaliner or raptor liner
3. herculiner (which has old tires or something in it and makes it rough as ****, but it is only $60/gallon or something)

Yea either Rhino or Linex I am going to with LineX because they are only 10 miles away compared to Rhino there 50 miles. Between the two I like LineX more just a preference though. I am not going to do the whole thing I will be doing just the rocker panel up to the insert where you take the plastic trim off, and inside the door jams depending how much.

AGREED. I would buy a $250.00 kit with maybe an extra gallon or two. take off all the doors, and trim. Tape accordingly. would turn out well. And I hope you have a good place to do this. THat stuff is strong. I do not reccomend spraying in a garage. It will cover everything in overspray and will stink up the house for a few days. ask me how I know...and I only did the inside...
Do some research on the texture you want. I found that the hurculiner and dupont bedliner are too soft of a liner. no real texture to it. you will get better texture rolling it, but it may not be as even as a spray?

i got a quote from line x for bottom quater panels they wanted 1800
and for the whole car they wanted 2800 ...
ha!
granted thats them doing all prep and everything but still!!!
ive used herculiner like 3 times on quarter panels with no regrets. it goes on good comes out a little shiny but dulls down in a month..
but then i found out about monstaliner and regretted ever buying herculiner.
monstaliner looks muchh cleaner in my opinion and last longer according to the comparisons .
if your going for the whole car.
roll on would be the best imo because a spray on is going to require someone else to do it and thatll be expensive.
(unless u plan on buying a paint gun and have access to an air compressor )
and as far as roll ons go, id go monstaliner

I will let you know how much it will be. Otherwise if it is to much for the door Jams I will use Raptor Bedliner. Raptor Bedliner seems to get a very good review from all forums. Also I plan on using a spray gun not a big fan of roll on that is just me. Also I just painted my roof rack with bedliner the cheap Rustoleum or Dupi I forget whatever one has the comfort grip and I used 3 coats of primer and around 4 coats of bedliner and that came out great I can't wait to see what Raptor will look like.
