What did u use for a spray gun, I want to spray mine in but don't know what typebof gun to get and I wanna be real cheap at the same time

 

I used a paint sprayer at 45 psi with a large nozzle.

 

so i guess the kit with a roller is out of the question. are there any good sites to get it from and is sanding it down really necessary?

 

Using a roller works just as well as spraying, but the difference is spraying will set a better first coat coverage and rolling will put thicker first coat. You can also do a combination of rolling and spraying to really make a good looking bed. Too prep your bed use xylene or acetone solutions and use a scrubber to get clear coat off so the liner sticks better. The more prep work you do the better the liner will stick it's up to you.

 

Amen to that.

 

if you do a diy bedliner you have to either sand or use one of those 3m pads that usually comes with it. the better the prep the better the results that being said i did hurculiner on my last truck and if you abuse the bed it is just a waste of money. the first thing i threw in it, an axel, it bumped around and took some chips out. i also had to put the uv coat on once a year to keep it looking decent. my dak i went to a local guy and had pro-liner sprayed in for 300 over the rails and the only problem i had is when i backed in to a porch thanks to the people who were spotting me. its your wallets choice on how you go.

 

Ill roll mine in again just so I dont have to deal with a spray gun. Prep work is key and do THIN coats. The texture turns out much better when you do several thin coats instead of one thick coat and you wont get drips.

You should be able to find it right at Orielly, Autozone, Fleetfarm, or your local hardware store. Wait for a good sale though as you can normally get a rebate or atleast $10-20 off the regular price.

 

how is the the duplicolor bedliner?
