I call it SUPER PAINT!
Actually, it's called Dupli-Color truck bed liner. Compared to paint, it's a bitch. I'm working on rolling it on and here's my progress so far:
Note, also, the flat black wheels, grille, and headlight trim. This thing is going to black on black.

That's gonna be faded in about 2 mo. I painted my bumper airdam with it, and I have to put armorall on it or it looks really faded, almost grey. There maybe some kind of sealer/satin clear that you can put over it. That way you get the "primer" look without the fading and hand prints all over.

"Rob and Big" called.....they want their truck back
did you do it for scatch protection or just wanted it to stand out?
Either way its going to look pretty cool,very nightriderish
As far is fading i guess mabye you could put a coat of rustoleum when it fades.

hey Mudslingur - why'd you pick that handle? I just used that as an insult in another thread - nothing personal- I was referring to poor bodymen, but I'm guessing you know that!
Also - what does "Mexican - proud and stupid...." mean??

I've gotten so many Rob and Big references from people looking at my truck! lolI think I'm going to just keep a couple cans of the spray on bedliner with me. Then, if it chips off, I can just reapply. I don't really mind fading. It goes back to the 'why?' question. This thing is going to be beaten off road and I want the protection. The fact that it looks kick *** is just a pleasant surprise.
After this, it's going to get an exocage, solid front axle, and 35x14.50 Boggers!

Kinda reminds me of Dierks Bentley's song...
She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate
Her daddy came out waving that twelve guage
We tore out the drive, he peppered my tailgate
What was I thinking?

So far, I've put roughly $150 into it (two 1 gallon containers and 2 spray cans). The final coat you see on it is spray. I need to get about three more cans of spray and finish up the roof (I'm fully spraying the roof, too hard to roll it on) and even out the final coat. Getting an even coat with spray is infinitely easier than trying to do it with a roller.
