Re: Do it yourself bed-liner stuff??
with the way that the "bedliner" applies and sets it will look good but on the trail you will NOT be happy.
It will "tear" and look like **** with just minor rock rubbing...

I know. I'm only wanting to put in on the TOP of stuff - like my rock rails. I've seen pics of how it rips off when you put it on the bottom.  Hummbebe comes to mind.

Ummmmm...... same as paint. You touch it up same as paint also. The worst thing to do would be to powdercoat them, then you couldn't even paint over the scratches and match it up.
Durabak is very durable and doesn't peel but you would rattle can some rustoleum as a base anyway, I would think.

Paint just gets removed where you hit it with a rock. That line-x stuff tears in big sections.
Ummmm... Add 1 part Rubicon, 1 part Line-X. Mix, and.....

Re: Do it yourself bed-liner stuff??
We used Dupli-Color spray on the symbols and chrome over the license plate. Good texture and east but not tested for durability in those areas.

That's Line-X, I didn't suggest that.

Ahhh, I see sensei.
While I don't use Line-X on my H2, I'm more than happy with how it's working out on my toilet seats.

Re: Do it yourself bed-liner stuff??
The Duplicolor stuff sux. Several of the local Jeep guys tried it in their tubs and outside on bumpers. It peels off same as Line-x and is not durable at all. Get what you pay for I guess.
For my bumpers and rails I used Rustoleum textured stuff. It's the same flat black as the regular rustoleum but has texture to it. Not the same as Durabak and other "rubberized" bedliner stuff but still good none-the-less.
I have a few gallons of Durabak that I have been meaning to spray the whole floor of my enclosed trailer. You can spray it on anything with proper prep work and it is durable. It's not thick like other bedliners but you can get it thick with several coats if you want a more rubbery feel.
