You have to do it to the letter to get results. Yes it took me about 4 hours to get just the first coat. This is on my 4th truck. You just can't skip anything and expect it to work right.

Most people have a hard time installing that bed liner, because just about every self-applied liner I've ever seen (and I've seen about 100 I would guess) looked bad. As we say, proceed at your own risk. Thanks for keeping it real! :-) Mickey – I think that people can have success with the Herculiner product (just as you have), but I have a hard time recommending it to your average joe.

All 4 trucks I owned had herculiner that I put in. I haven't had an issue yet with it. It is like you stated you have to follow the directions to the letter. If you don't yes you will have the same issues with any sprayliner if it isn't prep right like big chunks coming off and it has happened to line-X and Rhino. They know it as you see what company doesn't do it right. Call it what you want (plastic coating) being the fact it's 4x cheaper than your spray-ins. You know if you didn't want to condemn the product why list it that way in your commentary. If you don't know the product you cut it short. Again poor commentary without all research.

We're going to link to this article on our site. We get a lot of questions from visitors to our site wanting to know how well this stuff works. We can give the facts based on the chemistry but its good to hear this from a un-interested third party. I'd add that it isn't just the knowledge of the applicator that makes this a poor product...its the material. I would say that not even the Tiger Woods of bedliners can make this stuff look good. Also... don't count out the INDEPENDENT BEDLINER GUYS! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, for your comment about a gallon of thick paint trying to pass itself off as bedliner.

Research that one before you go not recomending it. 200 colors and i would say is defently up there with the big boys as far as quality.

I'm still driving it. I put in a sheet of 3\8 plywood when the truck was new. I still have the same sheet in there,almost 13 years. It allowed very few scratches on the bed, comes out easily for cleaning, and it was cheap. I bought a T-100 in ‘96. I’m still driving it. I put in a sheet of 3\8 plywood when the truck was new.

I have to say that I searched the "world over" and found more opinions on bed liners than you can shake the proverbial stick at. Toyota has a drop in liner optional for $199.00. I believe it is manufactured by Pendaliner. I went to Pendaliner website and found they have a new improved version Pendaliner SR (Slip Resistant). I checked with a local customizing shop ( Pickups only) and they won't do spray ins. They say the Pendaliner SR is the creme de la crem. Pendaliner has made the bottom and top sides of the SR liner with rubber like texture that really works. I have mine scheduled for installation Monday. Also, note that if you have the deck rail system it actually works to secure the bedliner to the truck bed. Pretty cool. I must say, I really appreciate the insight and information provided herein.
