It cost me $159 with 4 bottle kit and gun. I had tape and drop cloths. Bought some etching spray from HF. It took 1.25 hours to prep including going to the store to get a wire wheel(they nylon ones took forever). Spraying was around 20 minutes each coat x2. The cheapest I found around Philadelphia was $650 and it would be 2 days in their shop. I love how it came out AND I saved almost $500 bucks. Now all my buddies want me to do theirs.

hell yeh brother!

My 2nd gen is a 6ft bed. Do you think I could get away with 2 cans???

[@AdventureN]

I think it would be possible. but would be a very light coats

[@thepuresaltchannel]

You crushed that. Definitely not fun but so worth it.

[@AdventureN]

thanks mate! no it isn't a small fun job, but definitely rewarding!

[@AkumaQiu]

What sprayer are you using?

[@AdventureN]

@@AkumaQiu it's called a shultz gun!

I want to do the roof of my camper but not sure how it will bound to the roof now.

[@coltsblue0331]

What psi do you recommend for this. I see the instructions say 50-60. I just want to know what you use. Look great by the way.

[@sostrongineedmoreofyourmon974]

It kind of depends on what texture you desire. The higher the psi you will tend to get finer/flatter texture whereas with the lower range you tend to get a rougher/chunkier texture. Today, I sprayed my vehicle plastic trims at 55 psi (with the raptor shutz gun) and got a decently rough texture which is what I was going for. I plan on doing the same for the entire bed tomorrow, but when I raptor the exterior of my truck I know I’m going to go for 70 psi (depending on what my test sprays give me at that setting that day)

[@bakervinci163]

How big of a compressor do you need

[@AdventureN]

To be honest I'd have no idea, something that can do a consistent 50 PSI. I guess the bigger the holding tank the better!

[@apexmarketing7621]

Toff

[@Clappedoutprojects]

With the price of this stuff it’s not worth doing it yourself you can get bullet liner done for 550

[@AdventureN]

Whilst this is a fair comment, its more fun and having that personal satisfaction of doing a DIY project. The ability to put your hands on your hips and amire your handy work is something else in my honest opinion 😃

Not worth all the time, effort and materials when you can get it professionally done with a warranty for around $300

[@chuckbronco6485]

Where the hell are you getting a spray in bed liner for $300? The local crackhead?

[@wilen]

I'm about to paint a whole ass RV with it. I'm nervous

[@boocatdog]

How did it go? Wanting do a van

[@wilen]

@boocatdog it went really well, it has a very modern look, and is an easy fix to an ugly vehicle

By chance are you on meth?

[@johnnymartinez1063]

Me too

[@Yash-c3v]

Doesn't it rub off with minimal use ?

[@AdventureN]

no it doesn't, it's a very durable tuff coating

[@dustypaint]

do you make 2nd layer after the first one dries out

[@AdventureN]

yes about 30mins dry time between the first and second layer

[@ricardocorsa9077]

How nany cans do you recommend the kit with four cans, i have a 5.8. Short bed from chevy silverado.

[@AdventureN]

The thicker the better, this kit was 4 and I any used 3 from memory. Our Ute tub / beds over here in Australia are much smaller so I’d say 4

[@kr2513]

Wash the bed with Dawn let it dry. Wire wheel on a grinder (buy 2), staying away from edges. Sand as you would by your hard line. I apply Primer sealer first.

[@AdventureN]

Great tips!

[@kr2513]

@@AdventureNyou as well. Good on you for doing it yourself. The factory jobs aren’t even sanded before they do this, and you did a much better prep job than line-X.

[@kalaganne]

Defo primer indeed

[@bensmith9175]

Roughly what was the total amount of time it took from prep to spray the second coat?

[@AdventureN]

oooo good question....I really didn't make a mental note of it. Prep certainly took the longest. Spraying the easiest. Id say about 4-5hrs for prep. Then 2hrs for spray. All a gestimation

[@bensmith9175]

@@AdventureN woah, you went hard on the prerp. Thanks for the info

[@onetwoshootmedia]

preperation is the key to any paint job, plus I didn't want to get any paint on the new car!@@bensmith9175

[@kaylanwade3392]

Roll-on is where its at. Just ask project farm

[@justinhaley9672]

How many quarts

[@Kernomadz]

Nice work! How many bottles did you use?

[@AdventureN]

The kit came with 4, I used 3. 2 got a coat on everything but the third I went extra thick on the base of the tub

[@Kernomadz]

@@AdventureNthanks for the reply! I’m about to coat my bumpers with raptor. Great video. 🤙

Excellent! I also set myself up for June to line my entire F-150 although I pushed the start until today. Will be done with the paint project by July 4th

[@AdventureN]
