Isn't silver notoriously difficult to paint match?

 

Nothing wrong with priming, especially with a rust stopping primer

 

Bed rails and some touch up in the bed, it’s been ground off anyway so it already looks like balls

 

silver is a super tough one, especially if you're painting a different surface like plastic vs metal

 

Hard shell

 

Did you not install a gasket between the shell and bed?

 

I found quite a bit of rust on my cab today, don’t really know what to do about it

 

ignore it

 

remove rust, prime, and some sort of topcoat... never leave primer exposed, its super absorbent for a reason and will also absorb water

 

What truck

 

I actually redid the gasket before putting it on and it still messed up the paint. I think the combo of taking it on and off tons of times, and a lot of Offroad miles still messed it up.

 

That's not terrible, I'd probably just mask, sand it all, prime, and bedline

 

Damn thTs bad. Mine hasnt been off in line 4 years. Wonder how my truck looks

 

I’ll have to take pictures of where it’s at

 

Thats true, he can just bed line there and the rest the bed

 

Could just do the rim too, I've seen people who have caps and who don't have them do that and it makes it nice and clean

 

yes

 

Yeah I’m not worried about it at all, it’s just cosmetic. But coming into summer I like my truck looking half ass presentable haha

 

Break it with a screwdriver, patch it with duct tape, and spray paint it

 

I need to bedline it, one of those things i’ve Always meant to do but never done
