my brother and i are going to split a herculiner bed coat kit. we both want to do 2 coats up to the first body line of our trucks on the cab and bed. is there enough in the kit to do that much?

 

i would say yes.

 

I would say its ****ing garabage product. Go with Durabak or Raptor liner. Those two are the best DIY liners out there.

 

thanks for answering my question jackass. and no, its a great product. a few of my buddies have it on there sas'd trucks and it withstands all the **** they go through.

 

Durabak and Herculiner are the same product with different labelling. I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say Raptor Liner is also.

All the DIY liners are the EXACT SAME THING. And yes, a 2gal kit will cover the lower panel of 2 rangers all the way around.

 

thanks bud! ill be getting the kit tomorrow

 

a 1gal kit* i meant. I had much leftover, i recommend you put a few layers, takes a while obviously but i have spots showing through on mine, ill be redoing it this winter.

*edit* if you search the forum "herculiner" people have asked about this before and ive posted threads of my how i did it to my truck. As a how-to, just to help out.

 

ok cool ill check it out. thanks

 

I had it on my car hauler and it faded and cracked. I used durabak on my friends dump trailer, used the raptor liner on my trailer. We lined both of his dump trucks with each one. Havent had a problem with either. They're all urathane products, imo the quality of the raptor and durabak is better.

id also look into the duplicolor kit....heard good things about that

 

I am not sure that the one gallon kit would be enough for two beds. I did it on a full-size short bed pickup I used to have and it took about all of the kit to get it done and the fumes were so bad that I had a headache that felt like my eyeballs were getting pushed out of my skull from the fumes! I did it outside with an industrial 36" fan blowing on me!
You might want to look at duplicolor's bed armor which does not have the fumes, that is what I plan to use and you can get it for around $80 from Jegs and a few other places. I have seen it done on shows such as Trucks! and Stacey David's Gears and it looks to be what I am looking for.

Good luck!

 

aslong as you dont do that ^ your golden. stay away from that paint with sand in it crap

 

OP isn't talking about covering two beds. And honestly cans someone take a picture of cracked herculiner? I don't even know how this can exist since it never takes a form that is a dry solid(like a paint chip). But at the same time, I'm also in Alaska so mine never has to deal with the heat of Texas or whatever.

 

just got done layin my first 2 coats. its dark so ill do the third tomorow. thanks for all the help and input!

 

if possible i recommend you look very hard and see if you can see any paint through it. If so, do a 4th. Just because i did 2 layers(was in a rush) and it wasn't covered perfectly. I'm gonna put on another 2 layers in a month or so, will refreshen it up too

 

yep, thats why i need to do another coat. i can still see little specs of my paint
