Spray On Bedliners: Problems That Can Arise
If you’re a truck owner looking to maintain your cargo’s safety and security in transit, a spray on bedliner is one of the best solutions we could recommend.
While we’re sure you always take special care to keep your cargo safe when driving your truck, sometimes scratches and scuffs are inevitable if you don’t have the correct automotive coverings in place.
Though rope ties can be an effective way to keep your truckload secure, many people now prefer to use spray on bedliners for the guaranteed protection they offer — but there is a catch!
Spray on bedliners are a popular choice for many, but our years of experience in the industry have shown us just how easy it can be to make the wrong decision when selecting a spray on bedliner for your vehicle!
Considering this, because we always have our readers’ best interests at heart, we decided to do a round-up of all the most significant problems truck drivers face when selecting a spray on bedliner for their trucks.
Let’s take a look at those problems below:
1. Overspending
The average Line X spray in bedliner coating for your truck will cost between $450 and $500.
While the price may seem a little high, experience tells us that’s the standard fee of most automotive coverings — but we always recommend shopping around for the best price before making your purchase.
Another thing to consider when choosing your spray on bedliner coating is whether or not you’ll opt for additional features like UV protection. On average, UV protection and added color matching can cost between $100 and $150. Considering this, you should only choose UV protection or any other add ons if you’re confident you’ll make a sufficient return on your investment.
2. There’s No Going Back
While it’s not always the case, almost all spray on bedliners are irreversible, and you cannot make changes after the seller applies the coating.
Though it is possible to change the color by applying another automotive covering over the top, doing so will most likely lead to further expenses and superficial damage to the truck bed surface.
Considering all of the above, we always recommend investing a significant amount of time when deciding which spray on bedliner color is best suited for your truck and lifestyle.
3. Not DIY Friendly
Though spraying a truck may not sound all that complicated, things can go wrong quickly without help and guidance.
For instance, an improperly applied bedliner can quickly peel, chip, crack, and fade, meaning you’ll have to pay out for another coating in less than half the time you usually need to.
That’s why we always recommend using a trained professional with years of experience in applying spray on bedliners to guarantee the best results.
4. Accumulating Rust
As well as looking unsightly, rust is very damaging to a vehicle and you should take special steps to prevent it from spreading across your truck in any way you can.
While it’s not always the case, rust is a major issue with some spray in bedliners. If the coating is not applied to the surface correctly, a bedliner can quickly accumulate moisture, eventually turning to rust.
That’s why it’s crucially important to fully sand off a truck bed and remove all uneven surfaces from the vehicle before applying the spray on bedliner coating.
