Default Duplicolor Rocker Coating

So I am thinking of coating the rocker panels and possibly the fender area with duplicolor bed products. During my research I have found two products and I am wondering which one would be better suited for my application.

They are both duplicolor and I am not sure what the difference is between the two.

Do you have pictures of the final finish?

Was the finish gritty and did it end up being shiny or matte ?

The duplicolor isnt nearly as thick and gritty as most of the spray liners I have seen.. You can make it as thick as you want with just adding more coats.. Here are the pics..

The bed part was over a year old compared to the cab.. Once dry there was barely any difference in color..
