I'd really like to see how that turns out if you decide to do it!!

Well were located way out about 7 miles north of GP.  Some say the boon docks.

Just kidding, we're just north of GP 4 miles of I-5 Exit 61.

One of our friends had his brand new 16 foot Haulmark trailer done the same way at a shop in Portland and it cost him way less than $1000.00.  Also, my nephue done his brand new Dodge 4x4 short box with the do it yourself from Napa for less than $1000.00. He beats the heck out of his truck and it is holding up perfect. He is a plumber.  That is the what I'am doing to my Dodge.

Whoops, I went to Walmart to buy a couple of gallons of the bed liner paint on / anyway it isn't $15.77 they had the price in front of it the first time.
It's actually $42.++  I bought a couple of gallons to get started.  I had the cashier with better eyes read the label for me and it say covers 80 - 100 square feet per gallon at 6 mill spreed rate. 

We all know that means you'll be lucky to cover 50 sf with normal application.   So, I'll let you know how it goes.

Have any of you guys ever heard of that stuff called "Gorilla Grip"  I went online last night and looked it up and it sounds like pretty good stuff. They also want dealers to spray it on like the Line-x and other dealers. The way I read it was for $115.00 you get 1 gallon and 3 quarts along with a couple of rollers and some cleaner.  I couldn't find out just where it is that you purchase it at, but there is a phone number to contact them. I seen it at several different places I was looking through. It might be pretty good stuff for the money.

I thought about starting this project today, but after pulling the quads out I realized I had started too late in the day. LOL.

I built a floor inside that allows the quads to drive over the wheel well and be parked side by side - now I realize to do this job right I'll have to remove that before I begin sanding and cleaning.  The weatherman is saying rain tomorrow, and this will take me more than one day.  So, I'll have to do it another time.  Instead I put the tie downs in and then just packed the quads back in and tied them down.  Sometimes I find I move backwards. LOL.

Seriously, save your selves the headache............

in less than 2 hours, Line-X will have your truck done!  Guarenteed for life!  if it ever fails, they fix it FREE!

By the time you do all the labor, and buy all the stuff, then wait for the weather, finally get it done, you might as well spend the money at Line-X.  Besides with the T.I. discount you save big time!

$1,800 is a lot of cheep (myself) labor...

DJ, the problem that I have seen personally with these companys that does this stuff is I haven't heard of any that will stand behind there product 100%.  My friend ( and I will mention his name Dick Adams ) lives here in Reedsport. He bought a brand new Ford, taken it to a line-X dealer in the valey and had it sprayed. It cost him $450.00. He got it home and about a month later he went with me over to the north beach cutting firewood. When we got back he had 3 places in the box where the firewood tore big pieces off. They were about the size of your fist. He taken it back to them to get fixed and they told him that hauling firewood wasn't covered under there warentee. Also, the 3 places where it had come off, it was about the thickness of a piece of paper. Now he sets with a $450.00 bed liner that has holes all through it. Nothing he could do about it. Now that is just one dealer. How many more out there says the same thing but does the opisite.

I guess it is what a person can afford makes a big difference to.
