    Default Dupli-Color Truck Bed Coating

    Has anyone used the Dupli-Color Truck Bed coating? I see they have gallons of pre-mixed coating and you can use their spray gun or roller. The gallons are $55 and the spray gun is $45 and the roller is $11.

    I just wonder how well this stuff holds up compared to the spary in bedliners that shops do locally? If I have to spend almost $100 for the gallon and gun etc., and hope it holds up....maybe I would be better off having a shop do depending on how much more I would have to pay. If a shop will do it and guarantee it, I would rather spend $250 and let them do it. I've seen a few beds done around here and not only do they look great, but they held up well against shovels scraping them, ATVs and cycles on them, spills, etc.

    Just a thought...

    I played with some of this on a Dodge I sold a while back. Bed looked like ass so I figured I couldn't hurt it... Well, it didn't hurt it. It did look better. Beyond that...save the money if you actually want a durable finish and have a pro do the job.

    I shot my bed sides with it then painted over it with od. It seems to be holding up well.

    i am going to apply durabak coating to my cab floor boards,truck bed, fenders and frame. durabak has a higher resistance to corrosives such as salt water, and because im around that alot, i wouldnt trust other products. it is pricy at 78.00 per gallon but the good news is there is no mixing-one coat application after prepping the existing surface.
