How has it working out for you? I'm looking into doing my 8' bed, do you have the 6' bed? I read somewhere it takes a 1 gal can plus 1 quart for a 8' bed. Thanks for any info.

How long did it take you to coat the whole bed? I'll be doing this to my truck. I hate insert bedliners as they rub the paint off over time. Looks good man.

If I was you I would use 2 gallons for your 8 foot bed. Put it on thick and it will last longer. It will take like 20 mins to do the first coat. then you have to let it dry for at least an hour if not a little longer. then you put on the second coat. then you have to let it sit for 24 hours before using your bed.

How well does this stuff hold up? From what I'm reading the one gallon kit will do my 6ft bed? I could use something for my bed since just about every weekend I'm hauling dirt bikes and fourwheelers.

I used about two gallons on my six foot bed, but I also did the bed rails too. I mean the stuff holds up pretty good. It has the best grip that is out there, that I know of. I'm going to have to do another coat on mine, but it's been two years since i did it.

i don't think you used enough. it looks really light. should be solid black everywhere. Make sure you use the UV coating, otherwise it'll turn ugly and dull.
