Truck bed liner question.

I have project car that I want to used bed liner in the interior.

For those that have worked with it:

1) Did you use the herculiner or equivalent product? How were the results?

2) Did you use a two-part liner system? How much was it? Did you like the results?

There's a local shop that will mix up the 2 part line for me for ~$80/gallon with activator. They can make different colors, which is cool too. I don't need that much, but likely at least 1/2 gallon.

Or, I can buy the herculiner stuff and use that. They have a kit for $99 at FLAPS.

I plan to roll it on. Any tips on what kind of roller to use?

Thanks in advance.

I used herculiner to coat the bottom of a cargo van that stores hazardous material. Just rolled it on and it worked great to make it fluid proof. Any roller will work but use a small one like 6" to get in the corners. use a NIOSH approved respriator, that stuff off gasses a lot. toss everthing out after your done, no reusing anything, tough stuff. I don't think you can get the good product in California, too many VOC's.

My buddy used Hreculiner on his Wrangler interior--forget what ratio he used, but it was applied with a roller and then after drying, very lightly sanded to knock down the sharp points. Worked great.

Yeah the roll on Hurculiner is very popular with the Jeep crowd. Use a low nap roller to keep the sharp points to a minimum. Those new foam rollers work best.

Steve has used Mortons on a couple of cars and really likes it. Good heavy texture. Surprisingly good sound deadening qualities.

I used Raptor on my Dad's Monte Carlo in the interior. Easy to use product (as unlike Steve, I'm a complete beginner). I actually liked the look of the Mortons better. The Raptor dries a pretty flat color and the Mortons Steve used has some gloss to it.

Both are two part and both were shot with a shutz gun. The Raptor kit came with a free shutz gun.

and we avoided putting any on our hootus(s)

I can't help myself:
http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=18595

What exactly is your hootus and how on earth did you get herculiner on it?

My hootus is just exactly what you think it is and I would really appreciate some help pronto as this is a rather uncomfortable situation right now.....

I'm with Paul, I want to know how the heck it got there! Seriously though I don't know if a way to get it off... all the things I can think of involve cutting or acid... neither of which you want near your "hootus". You could try some goo gone, don't know if it'll help but you never know... I still really want to know how it got there though, LOL

I loved the look of some of your vehicles at Moab that had either Rhino-lined or Herculined your rocker panels/lower door skins. So I am saving mucho bucks and hiding my damage and paint destruction by Herculining my rocker panels over the carnage. Of course this stuff gets all over everything while you are applying it, including your hands.

Nature called during this project, proving the opportunity for whatever is on the hands to transfer to other body parts.
Certainly you can now fill in the blanks in this story. I really don't want to get into the "long" version . Is that clear enough? Do you want pictures?

I'll be sure to wear protection when applying it. ;-)

If your intent is sound proofing with some waterproofing ( it may not seal against a flood or puddle) try using Grace Ice and Water Shield. It's used for roofing, but makes a good accoustic mat. It's self adhering on one side and you can cut it to shape. If you are creative you can cut it so that there are minimal seams and the seams overlapping to seal. You can buy a roll for about $130 and it'll coat several interiors. This won't work if you are not carpeting over it.

It's a tar like substance about 1/8th inch thick. When exposed to higher temps (70F+) it will bond very well to any surface as if it was applied with a brush. There is a non-stick film on the topside. Applying it one has to work it so as to not trap air bubbles. If trapped, the bubble can be poked and air removed.

I will be using it on the next project and will document it.

Btw the roll is 100 feet IIRC.
