Default questions about roll on bedliner..

So I plan on using one of the roll on bed liners (not sure on which brand yet, hoping for recommendations) for my bed and rollbar. But I also though about using it on my fender flares.. what's your thoughts on that? How would it work out?

You can use Herculiner for the bed, but I suggest a spray on bed liner for the roll bar and flares, it will come out better.

I've used 3 different brands of the roll on kind and I will ONLY use Herculiner from now on for in the bed. On the rocker's I would use Duplicolor w/ Kevlar

Oh, duh. I guess if it wasn't 2 in the morning I probably would have figured that out..

I used about 3/4 of a gallon in a stepside. Use 40 grit sandpaper on a drill adapter. Dont use the little pad it comes with. It's junk. You need DEEP scratches in the metal for this stuff to stick properly.
