Al's Bed Liner DONE!!!
Finally got my primer for the liner today. It took a lil wrist control to hold that much material in one hand bed it was worth it. I hope it works as good as it looks. I sanded the whole bed down with 40 grit paper on my D/A. I used about 10 discs. All the nooks and cranys i could not reach with the d/A i went back by hand and did. Did a real good tape job and started spraying away. I had to adjust the settings on the gun a lil to get the texture i was looking for , but one i got it set it took no time at all. It only took me about 30 min to do. That includes mixing 2 kits and spraying. This is a 4 part resin that needs to be mixed together, PLEASE do NOT mistake this for hureculiner, duplicolor, or the like GARBAGE

Enough with the bable

Did you do anything for overspray or is it not a concern?

That looks kicka$$ BTW!

Overspray? I had the complete bed and tailgate covered in painters drop cloths.(you can see it in the t-gate pic) I was quick to remove them while the liner was still wet to get a nice clean tape line

Nice job Brad. You used regular masking tape I presume? Looks like it laid out nice.

Very nice! I know which way I want to go with liner in my trucks now. Did you use the Al's spray gun or something else?
