Yep.....My bedliner top for my Snapon Epiq toolbox had some MAJOR bubbling issues. BUT....My amazing rep came to the rescue and covered it all under warranty with no hassle at all. Hopefully the new top is more resistant to oils from setting your arms across it!

Hey man, my epic pealed up also. I was so made after having it 2 weeks. Snap on said it wasn't covered due to heavy truck shop, I said take the toolbox back i don't want it. Snap on finally said that they would replace it once and only once I said nope take the toolbox back. They do not scuff the surface before coating the top, and mine had covering from paper thin to finger nail no consistency. I got my rep to pay for it to get linex coated 1/4 inch and it is soooo much better

That's shocking they even wanted to debate the replacement. I thought their life time guarantee covered their boxes. What's the point in paying 10 times what their competitors charge if the life time guarantee doesn't mean shit.

Yes they told me it was because of the ""chemicals" such as brake clean. So I pulled the catalog out and first two words were chemical resistant. So I told them take the toolbox im not paying this much to be shafted right off the bat i will go matco. Then there tones changed

When I first ordered my epic in combat green I watched your videos to try and hold me over. It’s been a year since I’ve had mine and maybe into about 6 months in my top did the same thing! They replaced it under warranty and I got the new top with the LED light in it. Fingered crossed this one lasts

The shop I’m at now back home in the Cincy area has a big led light above my box so It’s not as noticeable. Now to add the top and lockers.

Nice box man! A bit of ingenuity to get it apart, without actually disassembling the whole thing! The anchor plates on the roof of the hutch are for the bolts to the optional overhead cabinet. More $ if you wanna play! I also have the newer bedliner power top on my KTL1023. Cool that your rep just did what he did. Some out there aren't as nice. Guess if you spend the cash with them, are a valued customer, they'll bend over backwards to keep a their customers happy. Nicely done! Good video!

I think if I were to ever get a snap on Epiq, which I plan on doing, I plan on getting the Stainless steel top. I like the look better, and unless you have a garage roof leak onto your toolbox they're pretty resilient too. My toolbox is a Snap on classic with a Hutch and top hutch with a stainless top, given to me for my graduation present because my dad didn't have a garage to put it in anymore. He got my toolbox from Tim Schneider in Botkins at one of his tool sales too. Lol, that was his Snap on dealer for years.

Snap Snap-on hears a tip for you. Before you coat the stainless steel top have the tops sandblasted . This will give the bed liner something to grab on to. ps send me a 3 bay KLM with new sandblasted bed liner top will test it out at no cost to you.

I have a '98 Silverado with 200k miles on it. The LineX spray in bed liner was added on the day it left the dealership. Every time it rains, the bed holds water when it is in my driveway, since I always back in and the driveway is slanted quite a bit since my house has been shored up. This truck is a work truck, and has been used quite often, and it spent the first two years in So Cal, 18 years ub the Bullhead, Arizona 118 degree average heat, and now 2 years in the Louisiana swamp environment. Not one scratch or peel, and on top of the extreme weather, I use and abuse the bed, I haul scrap iron, car parts, spilled batteries/oil/brake fluid/paint/paint thinner/etc and nothing had damaged the liner. That looks like a bad job from the factory and they didn't prep the surface properly before the product was applied.

I have the same problem with my Epiq. This is the most expensive tool box I’ve bought, and the worst quality I’ve ever owned. I didn’t order it with the Line X top, I ordered stainless, but I’m stuck with it. The hutch was bent outward so far it wouldn’t sit on the roll cab, and my locker door was cut unevenly so it looks crooked. I also ordered it completely blacked out and the wheels came chrome and the emblems are chrome. The only thing Epiq about it is that it’s an Epiq fail!!! Hope everyone else had better luck. I’ll never buy another Snap On box.

I don't think it was chemicals from your forearms that did the damage but heat and friction from your forearms rubbing up and down the surface as it looks pretty tacky. The surface either needs to smoother of harder to reduce the friction and heat slowly breaking the adhesive off. Pretty poor design though from snap on. Shocked they also wanted to argue about replacing it.

@@RustbeltMechanic that does sound better and more durable. I was under the impression that a top liner was made to convert your toolbox to a work bench without damaging the box. Also to prolong the life of the box. Maybe I was mislead but I've seen guys mount vices and anything else that would fit with little issues. Here you come with a little brake fluid residue and oil on your arm and some how ruins it. I bet that top wasn't cheap either
