Thank you for this video! In June of 2021 I bought a Ford Ranger with less 89,000 miles it had a bed cover which was covering a large rust hole towards the front of the bed. I placed over the hole a sheet of metal held down with hex-head self-tapping screws, prepared the entire bed as recommended including the bare metal, using Herculiner and some thinner I applied two coats with a spray gun bought from Amazon for such liquids. After letting it dry I bought a topper for it, I've slid many tires, crates and tools across the bed since and its held up very well, no chipping or peeling of the bed liner only the high edges of the hex head of the screws have rubbed off. I like the rubber bits of the Herculiner because they help to hold stuff in place. For the Ranger which has a bed of 6' x 5' I used most of a gallon I did not need to do the inside of the tail gate because the plastic bed cover was fine and no rust under it. I think spraying is a better option but not everyone has that choice.

one of the best youtube videos ive ever watched

Looks good. I'll be doing this to my old truck as soon as I finish fixing the rust holes.

Used Herculiner out of the spray can on the bumpers of my work van. It looks fantastic and has a low build texture. Painted over it with a gloss black. The neighbors are even impressed....

nice work - great job on the video as well. Going to buy a gallon and apply to the 18' Tundra I just bought as the bed is really scratched up. thanks for the info!

I just used it on my nerf bars. Hoping it hold up.

The manufacturer states that for a long box, you need 1 gal + 1 qt.

Iu sed this on my 76 Jeep j10 8ft bed, it holds up fairly well but wire mesh scratched it

Are use this on my last truck bed, and it worked very well, a lot of dirt and debris tends to stick to the bedliner especially if it’s really hot out. Also, some thing I noticed is that the Herculiner tends to fade in the sun. Mine started to fade even after four months.

So how about a update on how it held up because you said prep was everything you did not remove the clear coat on most of the bed

Hello. Thanks for sharing. Im considering roll on vs spray kit. Ive seen a vid of roll on where the person said they could see paint lines with roll on. Did you experience that? How long would you say it took to apply each coat?

Does it have a smoother finish? If you were to load something in the bed (furniture, lumber) would it slide easily or kinda of get caught up?

looks legit. I just primed my C4 Fabrication Low Profile bumper for my 4Runner TRDPRO. I am going to use this on the high clearance additions, and maybe the bumper itself. I hear it may not hold up the best in heat, but I will be the judge of that when i see how hard it cures

Great video! How soon did you remove the tape? Did you remove it before the Herculiner was dry?

Do you think it would having an extra can of liner would have helped?

Those plastic i insert bed liners will trap moisture underneath and cause your best to rust. I just bought a 1978 ford f100 with a plastic bed liner. I pulled it out and had rusted holes in the bed. Those are a bad choice.

I think you had too much on the roller and or the liner was too thick when you used it
