Hurculiner

Mixed results from what I have heard. It is all about preparation & how much use the box of your truck endures. Unfortunately, even with thorough preparation, a moderately used box will reveal the weaknesses of Herculiner.

Do some searching here & over in the 6.0L forum, and you will find hundreds of threads regarding bedliners of just about any flavor. The favorites would probably be Rhino & Line-X...with an edge going to Line-X. They are pricey, but this is yet another case of getting what you pay for.

I have never used it in a truck, but I did use it on my 6X10 trailer after I built it, I don't like it at all, it fades, and flakes off, I am going to remove the floor of the trailer and take it to linex and have them do the trailer right.

Agreed, it dulls to a flat black, but it sticks, and its functional. Like most serious painting though, the key is in the prep work!

don't use it........I still haven't spent the time to remove it yet. I worked hard doing all the prep, and it still came out like total crap! First time I hi-pressure washed the bed it peeled off the first layer. There is a pic in my gallery that shows it sorta in the bed. Save your money and wait for Line-X

save your money for the Line-x like the others say

the off brands and generic stuff like herculiner do not work well

i saw an OBS powerstroke a week ago at Farm and Fleet with a generic bed liner product on his rockers and fenders and it looked terrible. I could see more paint than i could bedliner becuase so much had chipped off. not to mention it had faded to a gray-ish color too.

I used Herculiner on the tub of my Land Cruiser. I wish I didn't. In my opinion it has way too rough and chunky of a texture and looks pretty bad compared to the real spray in stuff. It has held up okay, but the LC is a whole different ballgame compared to a truck bed.
While we're on the subject, I'd like to mention Duplicolor spray in bedliner. That stuff is nothing more than re-labled undercoat.

Hootus! I'm convinced now that Linex is the only way to go. WOW that sounds painful. Good luck getting that off!
