Guest m35514h Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 Does anyone know how hard it is to lay down some rhinoliner truck bed liner in the interior of a z. I have a paint spray gun and was wondering if spraying it in myself was doable?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 I picked up a sales catalog from an automotive paint store and found a host of polyurethane- epoxy "bedliner paints" What was interesting is that a $20.00 special spray gun was offered to paint the bedliner paints. I am considering bedliner paint for my project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 I have used Herculiner, $99.00 a gallon in black ( it will cost about $115 in colors). I first used it on a Jeep interior about 2 years ago. It went on very easily with a brush in corners and a roller for the large area. It has held up very well except at the heel area near the pedals. In the Jeep I have no floor mats. So If you cover the stuff it should be fine. Last year, I used the Rustoleum bed liner found at Home Depot. It is going for $89.00 for the gallon kit. It contains smaller bits of rubber in it than the Herculiner, which may be better for the Z application. In this application, I used it for a steel diamond plate leading to the main entry of a very busy souvenir shop located near the Betsy Ross House, in Philadelphia. The foot traffic on this stuff has been unbelievable. It has also suffered from a few periods of snow and ice removal. This stuff looks as good as it did the day I put it on. Don't bother with the spray gun. You want to cut in all of the edges with a brush. By the time you have done that, there is hardly enough area left to bother with the spray gun for. This stuff is tolulene based. It will get you stoned in a heartbeat if not properly vented. Good news is that it like to be put down in a Rh of % 50 -70%. Good Luck Jon I have just used the stuff (Rustoleum)again in a second Jeep project. So far so good it is now 6 months old and no wear.

Guest Anonymous Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 The stuff Walmart has is made by Dulpicolor. I bought a quart can to try it out. This stuff has no texture (no bits of rubber in it)at all. If you buy thier install kit ( a cheap brush, a 6" roller tray, and a 6" roller handle with a funky roller cover that has loops on it), you can "texturize" the finish with the funky roller. This stuff will take 3 coats for a nice finish, while the other products may require only two. If you like a smooth finish then the Duplicolor stuff is okay, and it is cheaper at $50.00 a gallon. The test area I used this on 6 months ago is holding up okay. I only used two coats for the test, and the coverage (finish)is not that great. I should have put on a third coat. Note, that I did only use a brush and not their funky roller. I wanted a non textured finish for the test area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
