Roll in liner

[brutis72eb]

Could I just put a layer of RB and ruff it up then roll it on?
Heres your sandwich;D

The rust bullet needs to be on the metal to
get any benifits from it. Rough it up a little
then cover in liner. Should work good.

wear good gloves and dont get any of the liners on your skin. Will take 2 weeks to wear off. ohh and i second the herculiner.

I always use the POR first and rough it up with a wet scotch-brite pad before I roll on the Durabak.

Durabak on my cage

I am pleased w/ the durabak. It's nearly 2 yrs w/ four boys and it still looks and is wearing decent. I just did my bed and wheel wells. I had enough left over that I pulled my wheels and put a light coat under my fender wells. Then I'm looking at my roll cage that I'm waiting to powder coat and think what the h. I think it looks pretty good. I've been meaning to post a pic of it and will sometime in the future.

Here is a snap shot of my dusty Herculiner, it is holding up pretty good for the money.

You can get the rust bullet on the thread pages of this forum. Real reasonable price to.

 

[cams 76]

is the primer you used called por15 rustbullet

 

[Slick]

Rust Bullet is the same thing, diffrent manufacture. Like Ford or Chevy, both american car makers but diffrent.

Por15 is 1 company and Rust Bullet is another. Comparable product, just diffrent name is all.

there was/may still be a mass buy on rust bullet, so ya may check on that. If not a decent epoxy primer will do the trick too.

good luck and don't get too wrapped up with the "Name" of the product, just get a good primer... if the bed-linner dose it's job the primer will never see the light of day!

Sorry man, you beat me to the post. I didnt see it.
But you have to admitt, I got to the point faster. ;D ;D

 

[brutis72eb]

What they say is true but I must say that POR has alot of prep steps to cleaning the surface with their other products. There are multiple steps to POR15'ing. Yet, Rustbullet is just clean the surface to bare metal then apply. There is only 1 step and you only have to buy and apply 1 product. Good Luck with whatever you choose!

 

[chrisd0729]

In the areas that I didn't replace floor pieces, do I have to take the stock paint to the bare metal before applying the liner or, can I simply clean and scuff it?

 

[HotWheels]

por is best applied to the metal surface. take a wire wheel to it and roughen it up at least. I think the DIY liner needs this as it is solvent based whereas the Line-x has no air holes and does not required this "undercoating". Plain Line-X (black ) should cost about $400 for the interior of the tub from firewall to tailgate.

I wish it cost $400. I would get it done tomorrow if so;D . In MD the guys around me want $800 and they said it may be more. I didn't even want the rear wheel wells done. All I wanted was the floor. I want it to look like the origonal vinyl floor. I thought it would add a nice touch.
