Look up AL's Liner. A 2 gallon kit costs $164 and you can use a rocker shultz gun to spray it or buy their gun for $49. I like their gun, it does a great job. Don't be fooled by the Duplicator, hurculiner, crap on the market. This is a 4 part epoxy mixture that has a nice rubbery texture to keep things from sliding around and it also has enough build to cushion things

Only one place to get them and that is Dennis carpenter. Look it up for a 67-79 ford truck. I have them on my 88 F150 and was curious if I could get replacements if need be. I will warn you they are very spendy for what they are and the little built in slide and lock tie downs are not very strong I have one broken one from some carpet my brothers dropped on it.

Looks great! I'm doing mine with a rattle can for now, hopefully will get it professionally done in a year or two. I have a new appreciation for all the prep-work required to get all the imperfections out!

Prep work dictates the final out come!

Poor prep, poor paint job and I don't care if the painter is the best there is, they cannot cover poor prep work!

EDIT
It's like building a house, you have to start with the foundation!
