My Vortex sprayed trucks.

I have practiced on my trucks this week. I have my Bedliner equipment figured out. Hopefully business will pick up. My Ford dealer is going to send me all their work. They should. I have spent 120K in 3 weeks with them.
I am picking up a truck for the GMC dealer in the morning.

Here are some pictures.

I really hope my business takes off. I really want to work for myself and be home. I have worked away from home for 20 years.

Im just glad to have 2 beautiful trucks to practice on. The 2015 F150 is the hardest truck I have ever prepped. Lots of indention's and bumps in the bed. I have to get faster prepping.

I.he spraying bedliners for a few years now. I use it on most of my sub boxes too. Prep is the hardest part and a item that must be done right

Yes it is. Prep is the most important. I have found some Nylox cup brushes that go on the end of a drill. It is equal to 80 grit sandpaper. Cut my prep time in half.

I just ordered material to put a Granitex coating on some concrete. I'll post some Pictures when it is finished.

That white looks great. If my truck was newer, I would get you to do the white on my truck.
