Roll-on Bedliner - Good or Bad???

Has anyone used one of the many roll on bedliner products out there? How does it hold up? Was it easy to apply?

I just got a new to me pickup that I'd like to get a bedliner in and the $75 for the kit sounds better than $300 for someone else to do it.

Let me know what you think...
 
I have used some that was either roll on or spray on and I sprayed it on.
It turned out nice, and held up pretty good.
The first one I did I missed a few spots when I sanded and it peeled in those spots.
The stuff I used stinks to high heaven, so wear a respirator or do it outdoors.
I don't remember the brand name off hand, but it was an inexpensive kit from a box store.
 
I have a rubber that was made to fit on the floor I like it
because it's removable and washable and things stay where
you put them.

I used a roll on type (I used a paint brush) and am very happy with it put on last winter and was used all summer so far it has stood up excellently will use it again.

We have installed "HERCULINER" and it's indestructible unless one sets his truck on fire. Holds up well even in extreme usage of rough material hauling, unloading. Worth the effort to even apply it to the undercarriage and panels. Slows down the RUSt from salt, gravel roads etc. We used a sprayer attachment for permatex liner to apply the Herculiner, just a wand with a suction hose and a air hose.HTH. LOU.
 
I put herculiner in my old pickup I had for 7yrs and I was just starting to need a recoat in spots. It's a good product if you follow the instructions it lasts a long time.
 
We let a company come in and spray liner in several of the fleet pickups. It didn't take long to start peeling off in the AZ heat & sun.

I use a slip-in liner in my Tundra that has a skid resistant surface that stands up much better than the spray-on type of liner.
 
I have a removeable rubber mat you can find a rubber tailgate mat also works great ! stuff doesnt slide, around, deadens sound , prevents both the truck and cargo from getting scrached,and you can transfer it to your next rig when you upgrade
 
My step son and I applied it to the entire cab of his toyota pick up (his truck, his choice). The kind with grit in it. Cut in the edges with a brush and rolled the rest. It came out really well. It's still on there, no chips or flaking. That's after four years of Vermont road salt winters and him abusing it.
 
I rolled Herculiner on a wood surface and I found out it adheres like there's no tomorrow. The instructions warn you to immediately wipe it off of any place you don't want it to be and they are right on. I had one little glob get on the wrong place and the next morning when I removed it the wood underneath came off too. I plan on making a new flatbed for one of the pickups and I am going to use Herculiner on it. Jim
 
Put the Herculiner in the bed of my truck nearly 8 years ago. Other than a few spots where something had a sharp edge and more or less pealed it off as it was slid in, I've had no problems.
 
But you better upgrade pretty often- if you're in a moist climate, the removable bedliner will trap moisture, and start rusting the bed in pretty short order.

Boy you got that right up here in MN the slide-in bed liners are death on box's mpisture and salt gets trapper uder them. Wood chips stones, etc also gets under them.

IF you want it to look good, AND last a LONG time.....have it done by Rino-liner or equivelant. I have used the Herculiner stuff found at TSC / Autozone / etc......works ok....does NOT hold up nearly as well.....
