    That hill was pretty steep you can see how much my rear suspension was compressed because of the weight of the truck. Its hard to show how steep something is with pictures.
    Wow didnt realize how bad some of those pictures were, it was cold out and i was shivering and plus it is a camera phone.

    Good luck on the bedliner. I highly recommend herculiner. Shits strong and grippy as hell. Make sure you take your time sanding though. It'll be worth it in the end

    Dont they sell a Kit for like $90 bucks at Autozone. Thats what i was thinking about getting, it looked like a good kit. Yea i know about prep for painting and such, the more time preping the better it will look and stick.


    I will definatly post pics after and during the process.

    yeah i got my kit for $90 at autozone. plus a $20 rebate at the time

    came with a gallon of herculiner, sanding pad, roller, and 2 rolling pads

    you also need some chemical that i cant remember. acetone maybe?

    its much better to buy the kit cause its $30 a quart for just the herculiner stuff. a gallon is plenty for our beds with some to spare

    sure thing. basically every surface has to feel rough to the touch.

    when taping things off, use the blue painters tape. line one side up exactly where yo want it. then go to the opposide side and put the whole length of tape down in one motion. if its wrong, take it all the way back to start. this makes sure the lines are straight.

    hmmm, what else...
    well, 2 coats should be enough. there may be some sopts that you can see the silver through. just touch those up after two coats. damn i had a big list somewhere but i dont remember where. try searching herculiner.
