Rustoleum has a texture similar to 220 grit or maybe 400 grit sandpaper.
Herculiner has a texture similar to 60 grit sandpaper or maybe even asphalt.
I can't compare the two for durability since I sprayed the Rustoleum on a wood lawnmower trailer and the Herculiner is on the metal bed of my truck. The Rustoleum looks and feels better.
If you go with Herculiner then you need to drop the extra $20 on the UV protectant stuff because if you don't then it won't take too long before the stuff starts to shrink and pull away from itself then it will resemble a dry lake bed.

 

Alright, I think I'm going with the Duplicolor Bed Armor. Its smoother than herculiner, but still the nice textured look but not as sandpaperish, but has UV protection.
Working on prep now, I'll post pics after.

Thanks for all the help guys!

 

Here are a couple shots, sorry the second one sucks.

Before, all taped, before sanding

After first coat. (I was a little worried after this....)

Finally done and dried overnight. I am extremely impressed, this stuff was way worth $120


Highly recommended for anyone doing their own liner, I'll keep updating as I continue to use it.

 

Looks good man.. Did you end up using the roll on type?

 

Ya they didn't have the aerosol anywhere in town.
This was the Duplicolor Bed Armor with Kevlar Bits. It took FOREVER to mix up, but once you got it mixed it stayed mixed pretty well. First coat is definitely pretty thin, but the second coat looked awesome.

 

Thats good to hear.. I had a hard time finding the spray cans also.. I have to redo the stuff in the bed since I only had 1 coat on there.. Looks good though man

 

Thanks man, if it weren't for your suggestion, I would have done some not-UV-protected Herculiner so thank you!!!

 

Hoe about photos of the rest of the truck (it's a blue stripe thing.....lol....)

 

Thanksfully, all the advance auto parts stores in my area have the aerosal crap.

 

No problem.. Im glad you like it
