How Long Does It Take to Install a Bed Liner on a Truck?

A bedliner is a great way to protect your truck and to give it a more stylish look. Installing a bedliner can be done yourself or have it professionally installed. The amount of time required to install a bedliner on your truck will depend on the type of liner you choose and the size of your truck bed.

The most common type of bedliner is spray-on liners. They usually come in two types, single stage and dual stage.

Single stage liners are tougher and more durable than dual stage, but dual stage offers better protection for hauling heavier loads like furniture or cargo boxes. A single-stage liner should take about 2-4 hours to install, while a dual-stage takes longer, around 4-6 hours.

If you’re looking for an inexpensive option, you can install a drop-in bedliner. These are preformed plastic liners that fit into your truck’s bed without any cutting or drilling. Drop-in liners can be installed in as little as 30 minutes and don’t require any special tools or equipment.

For the highest quality protection, you may want to consider installing an undercoating product like Rust Bullet or BedRug. These products provide rust prevention and sound deadening properties. Installing an undercoating product will take 3-5 hours depending on the size of your truck.

Conclusion:

Installing a bed liner on your truck can range from 30 minutes for a drop-in liner up to 5 hours for an undercoating product like Rust Bullet or BedRug. The amount of time it takes will depend on the type of liner you choose and the size of your truck bed.
