Bedlining/Recoating trim

cuz id like to do mine and would like to see how yours turned out

 

pics or it didn't happen, and I THINK I have seen your truck around town once or twice....so I will be looking for it again.

 

Yeah I know no pics YET. I'll make sure and get some up for you guys tomorrow.

 

How did you know I live in Aiken?
On second thought my truck isn't hard to recognize if you've looked at my pics. So many stickers in the back window it wouldn't be too hard to recognize. I don't think I've seen a silver double cab with black rims. I have seen a silver double cab a few times in the Walmart parking lot that had a decent size lift and chrome rims with offroad tires. maybe a 6" lift or at least more than 3".

 

Saw it at Ferrando's some time ago. Your truck in not hard to recognize, but alas, neither is mine. Look for the tw.com sticker on the back and the canadian flag plate on the front.

 

OK heres the pics I promised.


And heres one to show how fine the grit really is

 

And one more for Canada

 

dont look too bad

oh yea and Clemson FTMFW BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dont you hate how when people see you drive a burgundy and black taco they automatically assume you a Carolina fan?

 

If it weren't for your Clemson sticker I would almost think you an LSU fan.

JK.

How thick do you think you could get that stuff?

 

Yeah my Dad's side of the family is nothing but Clemson fans and they didn't like the black toolbox on the burgundy truck. So I bought a 7" tiger paw sticker and put a Clemson license plate on the front. I'm just not a big fan of chrome trim on trucks

 

idk how thick you COULD get it but I know with about 4 fairly light coats it's still pretty thin. I might have to clean it up good and put a few more coats on after I do my front bumper. I'm definitely gonna have to try and make it thicker up there so it won't chip as easily. It should be really easy to touch up though if something does happen.

 

your so good to me, even if you are a Clemmer fan... btw, nice job on the bumper, you might have to come over and show me what to do.

 

u think this will work on a aluminum tool box?

 

I could show you what I did but my bumpers aren't chrome. I would think you could do the same thing and probably wouldn't have to take all of the chrome finish off. you could just rough it up some.

Yeah I've heard of guys putting bedliner on old aluminum toolboxes that've been beat up and the finish is coming off. I know my cousin coats the inside of his with bedliner so I'll have to ask him what he did. I think you could put this stuff on just about anything if you do enough prepwork. sanding a diamond plate toolbox isn't gonna be too much fun though

 

cool
thats gonna be fun

hay wait you live in Aiken hmmmmmmmm

 

well, you could come on down, and while you are here, you could nuke Canada, like you sig suggests.
