This spring I'm thinking of spraying my rocker panels with some Rust-Oleum Bed liner. Because of tires flinging rocks all over the place. What would you guys think of it.

 

i was thinking about doing this too but line-x instead. i heard it was pretty cheap, around $300. check out jakeh05's truck. i'd say go for it.

 

Yeah i think i will do it with the rust-oleum because of my flares and rear bumper are sprayed with that

 

im gettin it done but im gettin the front valence, flares, rear bumper, bed and the rockers sprayed in line-x hopefully soon soo go for it it looks amazing :)

 

Yeah I will do it when It gets nicer out and not so cold

 

do it!!

 

I have done it, and beef08 and a guy from Colorado will be coming down to get his done , so make your appointment,

 

How do you like it?

 

it's great, I have done about 80 trucks, Line is the way to go.

 

well i see it on 2001fordrangers truck all the time and it looks awesome

 

I just sprayed mine with Duplicolor bedliner & it looks great.
Best $10 I've spent.

 

okay sweet glad people love it sounds like i will be doing it.Just have to get some money.

 

do you have any pics?

 

These aren't the best, but here's a couple











I never got around to cleaning the masking tape goo off & now they're all covered in dirt & salt, but after 2 good coats of bedliner, it's hard as a rock & has just a bit of texture.

 

That looks really nice did you just use the rattle Cans or what did you use?

 

Rattle can.
It only took about 1 can for all the rockers & inside the door sills.
Even had enough left to shoot a light coat on the tailgate too.
I probably need to give the tailgate a couple more coats though.

You'll want to do it in a WELL ventilated area, that stuff is 10x worse than any spray paint I've ever smelled.

 

what all did you do as far as prep work or priming? and does anyone know how good the rustoleum holds up?

 

I used a green scotch brite pad to scuff everything up really well, wiped down with rubbing alcohol, let dry, masked off & sprayed 2 or 3 coats.

 

Seems easy enough, what's the best rattle can I don't want to use duplicolor I did my bed rails with it and it was junk it didn't hold up at all

 

I have the rustoleum bed liner on my flares and rear bumper and its done really well when i go to spray my rocker panels im gonna use the rustoleum

 

Bought some Rustoleum bed liner cans today hope to spray it some time this week

 

Keep us updated on that progress. Rustoleum would be cheaper that line x or like raptor lining

 

i will i hope to get to spray it tomorrow night or Thursday

 

Maybe even a write up, im sure thatd be appreciated.

 

Alright i will see bought doing that just a how to or something?
