Black or body-color bed liner?

[matt2491]

I'm planning to use the U-POL Raptor liner product. I've heard great things about it. How thick did the liner end up?

Do you have any pics of your truck?

I went the opposite to everyone's suggestion..... BLACK!



This was straight out of the booth so a little 'glossy' still.
It has a spray Bedliner too, but it was more for durability that looks.
The inside of the bed is in average condition as you can see, but rust free. I intend to still chuck stuff in the back so I didn't care too much about the dents/dings but being black made it much easier for me to touch up with a rattle can down the road as it wears than if it was body colour.


I don't have a better profile pic with black bed, but you get he idea from this pic.
I was pretty happy how it turned out.

Leeroy,
How is your bedliner holding up? My bed is rough. When I fix the rust up front the bed will get a liner. I have seen many different kinds in customers trucks. Mostly the ones on top of the paint seem to peel. I can sand blast the paint and rust from my bed and apply directly to the metal. Figured you could give a good testimony.

So far it's still good. No peeling at all, but I have put a few scrape/scratch marks on the floor. I thought using it for the landscaping would cause the most wear when I shoveled out the back, but Any scratches have been from moving furniture or dumping rubbish.
I'll take a pic and post back for you.
