Truck Bed Coating Spray

YMMV. I read multiple negative reviews about this product and almost did not try it. Much time spent stalking Jeep YJ boards finally brought me around. I had black nerf bars that were in terrible shape due to my classic Wrangler's new life in my office parking lot all day. I followed the directions of each can to the letter. I even bought the spray handle. I knew I was fully committed after sanding the bars down and applying acetone as directed. I even meticulously wiped the nozzle with a rag after each spray. This stuff is amazing. It applied evenly, looks great and is easy to maintain. I wish I had done this year's ago. I have since sprayed everything metal not painted Green or chrome on the exterior of my Jeep. Undercarriage, frame, wheel wells, plastic fenders, side mirrors, yes to all. It all looks brand new. Previous off road damage, tree scrapes, etc covered and hidden and it is all holding up great. No touch up required so far. However I would not bedliner the interior of the tub with this. In fact I do not think it goes on thick enough for it's intended purpose as a bedliner. If I decide to pull the interior carpet or buy a pickup I would much rather use the thicker roll on stuff. That being said, used as spray paint protection, I really cannot rave enough. I no longer am a slave to armor all to protect my 20 year old fender flares. Just wipe and rinse off. Every Wrangler owner with rubber flares should do this. I feel sorry for every TJ and JK owner I see with chalky white faded flares (YJ owners take better care of our rigs!). Take them off and spray them with this stuff. I even rehabbed my kids radio flyer wagon. I plan on painting my old bike next and the paint is starting to fade on my hood hmmmmmm.... Updated 10/3/21: Please retract the use on plastic. It looked good for about a year then would start to slowly flake off. I got sick of pulling them off every year to touch up. But you better believe my new double tubed bumper got sprayed before I even mounted it. The hunt continues for more metal to spray. Cheers.

Excellent quality and service thank you 👍

Spray tips clog easy, making the can appear to be defective. Had a few do this to me but I swapped nozzles on a few cans that "stopped working". After a quick shake, they worked, and I was able to reuse three cans that I had tossed to the side out of frustration. I'm on my third batch of ordering this product for a rear deck I'm coating while building it back up. Recommend making all your cuts and get the boards made how you want it to fit, sand then with 100-150 grit sandpaper. Then spray this product on. It's sprays on heavy, so move the can side to side a little quicker than normal type spray paint. If you don't, it will create runs. But what's nice is, it's clear, so in a pinch, you can just smear it with your fingers to flatten out the runs and you won't even notice it. It dries pretty quick too. Each can doesn't cover a lot of area, especially if you coat the wood 2-3 times. Order more than you think you'll need. It won't go to waste. Once I'm finally done with building up these back steps and mini porch, I'll be spraying it again one final time to cover everything and seal things up. The posts in this project are the next issue I'll have to deal with, but for now it's coming together much better than previously built...(Which was 27 years ago). With the help of this coating, the wood should fair much better than before. It's already rained on it a few times since the steps were redone, and the water just sheds off it, or beads up. It doesn't soak into it like if it was bare. It also seems to leave a slight texture too that feels a bit grippy. I recommend this product.

On 7/27/16 I bought 2 of these cans on Amazon for $6.50 each as an “Add-On” to use on PRIMED PLYWOOD. First, RUST-OLEUM SUCKS FOR NOT FIXING THE SPRAY CLOGGING ISSUES!!!! I am making an 8” high (above wheel wells) false bed, which extends over the open tail gate, for my 2009 Nissan Crew Cab. This is for 2 reasons. 1. Sleep 2 people comfortably. 2. Wheel wells prevent efficient packing of the vehicle, particularly with Costco/Home Depot storage tubs. Now I can pack up to 14 pre-organized and labeled camping storage tubs (7 on 7) perfectly, within 5 minutes while packing long things like poles, tools, rods and chairs underneath the false bed. Ratchet strapping is now simple, fast and requires no bungees. 1. I bought some 3/8” plywood. Home Depot recommended I used Kilz2 ($17) to prime it. 2. I applied 2 heavy coats on the top and 1 on the bottom using 3/4 of a gallon. 3. I allowed the paint to set 2 days between coats. Have no idea if that matters. On 8/29/16, today, I used the first two 15oz cans of Rust-Oleum Truck Bed Coating. 1. I first weighed both cans without the caps. Can1 = 19oz, Can2 = 19.2oz. 2. I used a Rust-Oleum Comfort Grip trigger ($6) which I already happened to have. Having read 90% of all of these reviews, there was no possible way I was going to attempt to use this stuff without a spray trigger. 3. I shook both cans at least 4 minutes each over 1.5 hours as I did other stuff. I have no idea if that helped, but I was not taking chances. 4. When I began painting it was 87F with 16% humidity. 5. CAN1 began sputtering immediately. I kept shaking it upright while I sprayed and did not get any drops until about half way when it started sputtering again. I then turned the can upside down and the spray became very smooth and I did not have to shake it at all, but then drops started falling and became worse as the can emptied. SEE PIC. When the paint ran low, I began doing the 3/8” sides so I could continue painting. 6. CAN2 began sputtering immediately and I immediately turned it upside down when I began spraying resulting in paint drops again, but no shaking was necessary. The paint drops are of no consequence whatsoever for this project and will be hidden by the second coat. When the paint ran low, I had to stand the board up to continue. 7. Two cans barely covered the 57”x80” (32sf) surface and 3/8” sides in a splotchy manner with numerous small areas not fully coated. 3 cans were required. It will take a minimum of 3 cans to do a second coat correctly. 8. After using every possible drop I could, can 1 weighed 4.5oz and can 2 weighed 4.3oz for a net usable amount of 14.5oz and 14.9oz respectively. Woo hooooo!!! 9. I compared the grit on the finish with 60/80/100/120/150/240 sandpapers that I had on hand. It was very hard to compare since the painted grit was much more sparse than sandpaper. My best guess would be equivalent to between 80-100 grit. 10. This stuff does not compare in any way to the stuff sprayed professionally in truck beds. However, it’s so cheap that you should consider carefully whether you need the professional spray job or the better brush/roll-on versions. TIPS: 1. USE A GOOD SPRAY CAN TRIGGER!!! They work great upside down too. I did not get a single drop of paint on my latex gloves while spraying despite shaking the can, and with drops falling. 2. Spray the downward area of the item first. Then when the can starts sputtering, you can level the can out towards the sides and effectively use more paint. 3. A can might cost you up to a $1 more at Home Depot or Walmart. So don’t worry about under-ordering. *** 30 August 2016; UPDATE/CORRECTION *** I bought an additional 4 cans from my local Home Depot at $7.46 ea, before 10% military discount, for a total of 6 cans, the last one for touch ups. The 6 cans weighed an average of 18.98oz before using (without cap) and ranged from 8.7 to 9.3oz. The 5 used cans weighed an average of 4.2oz after using as much as possible for a net average of 14.84oz of paint per can. When I began painting tonight, it was 88F and 24%RH. CAN3: I neglected to turn the cap to the front after shaking it and began spraying inside the trigger housing. Bummer. I had to clean it up real quick before starting again. I turned it upside down to spray and it began sputtering badly. I turned it back upright and it began spraying smooth until it got down to about 50-60% and then I had to shake it up and down every 10 seconds or so at decreasing intervals. CAN4 worked the same as Can3. CAN5 worked the same also except that it had a much, much better black matte finish then the other 2 cans, which is good because I over sprayed with Can3, and it ran, and was too glossy. TIP 4: How your cans perform depends on the batch, which depends on where you bought it.

I've used alot of this stuff instead of paint and it much more durable and looks good.

Good product

Great product! Used for my car roof rack and its the one you need for protection. Multiple coating means more protection.

Perfecto
