My truck is kind of lame compared to some of yall's...

they do look pretty good!

 

You'll have to ask someone who has more experience with those because there is also Herculiner and Line-X and Lizadskin. Which is best???what the differences??? I'd have to look more into all of them to pick the best.

 

Yea I definitely wouldn't use plasti-dip on your bed if I gave you that impression. Id use it for badges and maybe your bar. I think you have the right idea for the bed, just picking the product that you like best is the problem.

 

For parts you can remove to work on or have full access to, Monstaliner has a rust encapsulator, like POR 15 that will work well. For harder to get to locations Fluid Film.

 

Your mean my rocker panels, yea they do a great job and they've also been pretty good at helping with door dings from jack asses at the grocery store.

 

fluid film.... is it a spray on? im jsut talking about things like frame protection or at least prevention. I cant spend that much in a body shop or something if i feel like i can do it....

 

Fluid-film.

 

Yup. Best to use a paint sprayer for application but they also have aerosol "paint" spray cans but with the amount you'd you it may get pricey.

 

Herculiner is a great product, I 'think' can only be professionally applied, expensive

MonstaLiner is a great product, can be DYI, roller or spray, not cheap, but less than Herculiner.

I'd not use any of the budget products that contain rubber particles. Well, maybe on a beater I was squaring up to flip. Lipstick on a pig and all that.

 

The decals look awesome on the truck, cant wait to see the final result. How much snow did you get in Macon? We got around 5.5-6 in Rabun.

 

i whole maybe 1/2 inch. panic settled in, cannibalism occurred, the neighbors shot their dog. grocery stores and schools closed.
Nah, but really everybody did go crazy and grocery stores went nuts. watched a guy wreck yesterday.

 

i looked at a couple videos on monstaliner. i like it. fluid film is probably close to the top of my list. i really worry about the under carriage.

 

any ideas? i drive over some trees and the truck did fiune. i plan on getting a wich. they make small filler plates for the 2 triangular areas. but i was thinking of maybe fabricating a piece of metal and putting it behind the bumper? over heating issues? i worry when im playing i nthe wodds a stump or tree limb will go through my bumper and hit my radiator.

 

hard to see but where the tube is that goes across the entire front of the truck is exposed directly behind it. plus, i kinda want it to look prettier...

Ok, I'm caught up now. Back to the other thread....

 

Herculiner is cheaper than Monstaliner and is DIY or pro install but less colors. @shelby0808 could go white to hide the bedliner if that's the direction, or black for the contrast.

with that much room behind the tube bumper you won't have to worry about airflow, g'head and plate off those lower areas for protection

southern peoples, so scared of snow. I drove thru SC a couple years ago and there were "light" flurries and I-26 was crawling. even over xmas a few weeks ago construction on 3-lane roads I ran into 4 slowdowns (NC, two in SC and one in GA, ugh cause it added 90+ minutes to my drive)

Also, the Plasti-Dip I have on my badges is going on two years and still looks black. I had it on my old wheels for over 15 months before I removed it to go back to the silver.

 

definitely just want black for contrast. plating off the lower areas, better in sections or all one piece? i kow, it is ridiculous how people are terrified of flurries. last year we had 3 days of freezing temps, i was claled in to hold over. stayed at work for 3 days straight because my chief was scared.

 

what can i say. why take life so serious. nobody makes it out alive anyways

 

Subd for the sweet build.
