In today's video, we work on the Honda ACTY truck. Unfortunately, the truck I imported from carfromjapan.com came with a lot of rust... :/
To prevent future rust on the bed, I paint on 2 cans of the Rust-Oleum Automotive Truck Bed Coating. The bed liner was a cheap upgrade and I think it turned out pretty well.
Stay tuned for future upgrades/projects to the ACTY.
Bed liner I used:

Looks very good! I painted the entire outside of my Hijet mini truck with two gallons of gray Monstaliner polyurethane bed liner, rolled on with 4" textured roller for the rough bed liner finish and with 1" brushes for the trim. I still need to paint the interior with the third gallon of Monstaliner but that will be a job for late spring or early summer. It was a pain working around the cool weather, rain and short days to do the exterior bed liner painting in the fall. The Monstaliner is a two part bed liner. Once mixed, there is maybe two hours before it cures so it's imperative to do all of the prep in advance. I sanded with maroon ScotchBrite pads and wiped with acetone to remove any dust and oils. I used the expensive yellow 3M automotive painter's tape. It gives a cleaner line than the blue house painter's tape. I've had my Hijet for a year and am only halfway finished installing the upgrades that I bought. I just 3D printed a custom battery cover that I designed and installed it. Maybe I'll get the seats reupholstered and the heated seats installed before the cold winter weather arrives. I need to remove the old Dunlap street tires, power blast the paint off the rims, powder coat them and install the new Yokohama Geolander tires. Lots of LED auxiliary lighting to install, as well as the Atoto double DIN Android stereo, remote keyless entry, etc.

I just bought an exhaust for my van. It was 78$ new but cost close to $300 to ship to USA. You can get one of those smaller aftermarket ones if you want the loud exhaust, or go to a custom muffler shop and have them fab something for cheaper.

I found an exhaust on eBay! I've seen a few others install it on KZfaq so I went with it. It's more expensive than I wanted, but I hope it will be a worthwhile upgrade.

Great job! Looks terrific! I wanted to see how easily that rustoleum liner went on. You can get that muffler fixed at a muffler shop for around $100 here in NC anyway

Did you consider using the remaining part of the 2nd can on the welded joints under the truck to prevent rust? Especially since it won’t matter about the color difference or on the light bar just behind the cab?

Pro tip for any future painting projects is to use the green FrogTape brand. Those scotch blue tapes are hot garbage you almost never get clean lines.

I used the expensive yellow 3M automotive masking tape and got very clean lines when Monstaliner painting my Hijet mini truck. It's also able to curve to cover stuff like rounded corners on window trim. The blue tape is good for painting houses, but not vehicles.

I'm sorry, but while I commend your initiative and "can do" spirit, this is a rushed, sloppy and half hearted effort. Truck should have been masked, taped, sanded, wiped down with acetone and primed. Product should be rolled on with a 1/4 nap roller, not brushed. If the bed gets used, it will be coming off in a matter of months because it was not chemically bound to the substrate

Hi James, I appreciate your candor. While I did mask and sand the bed prior to painting, I understand it could have been done to a more professional level. However, so far for my purposes, the bed liner is holding up well. My main focus was to treat the existing surface rust and prevent further rust from developing on the bed and I believe I addressed that concern. For now, I am very happy with the results. Perhaps in the future when the truck is closer to being finishing I can post an update video on how it’s doing.
