Spray-on truck bed liners are a popular way to provide protection and add style to your pickup truck. Not only do they help protect the bed from scratches, dents, and rust, but they also add a unique look that can be customized to fit your individual style.
The spray-on truck bed liner is made up of two components: a base coat which will act as a durable protective coating and a top coat which will provide the color, texture, and shine. The base coat is typically made up of polypropylene or polyurethane resins which are sprayed on with a pressure washer or airless sprayer. The top coat can be made up of several types of materials such as epoxy, latex paint, or even rubberized undercoating.
The process of applying the spray-on truck bed liner is relatively simple and straightforward. First, you will need to prepare the surface of the truck by cleaning it thoroughly with soap and water.
Once it’s clean, you can begin spraying the base coat. This should be done in thin even coats using an airless sprayer set at around 25 PSI. After each coat has been applied you should allow it to dry for at least 24 hours before applying the next one.
Once all the coats have dried completely you can begin applying the topcoat. This should also be done in thin layers using an airless sprayer set at around 25 PSI. Again, after each layer has been applied you should allow it to dry for 24 hours before applying the next one.
Conclusion:
Spraying a truck bed liner is an effective way to protect your vehicle from scratches, dents, and rust while adding unique style and customization options. While it may seem complicated at first glance, following the steps outlined above will help ensure that you get great results with minimal effort.
