The drain holes get clogged. And along with the bad design, they(the holes) are higher than the crease. So when they get clogged, water just sits in the lower part of the seam and rots the door from inside out.
this might sound dumb.....but what does the oil do?

Prevents and deters corrosion. Also helps stop any corrosion that might be present by displacing moisture.

I am planning on doing this to mine too. I am going to be using a roll on bed liner though, but I'm still trying to decide on what brand to go with. I hear so many horror storries about all of the leading ones. I dont want a tacky feel to it, but I want it to be rugged too.

Anyway, looks awesome dude!

Also, where my truck is black I was considering getting the bed liner that you can add colour to, and maybe go dark red or orange, or dark brown (its usually that colour anyway)

Thoughts?

So this has me thinking.. maybe doing hood and cab where clear coat has came off..

But more so the dash.. dash is cracked.. what you guys think of epoxy the cracks, then cover with this spray liner? is it flexible enough to keep from cracking more? And would it look like crap with a black dash and rest of interior grey?
