Bedlined my hardtop
A couple guys asked in another thread to see pics of my hardtop that I bedlined so I figure I'd make its own thread
I had some chipping issues on the paint and I had done my fenders, mirrors etc already so wanted to spray it even though it was going to be basically the same colour :rofl:
Before:

Prep: Sanded with 80 grit, 150 then 220, blew off the dust and wiped it down. used approx. 4 1/2 cans rustoleum bedliner.

Forgive me if there is any mud on these last couple pics, it hasn't rained here in a long time and I found a huge puddle on the way to shooting and yeah haha you know what happened, i figure i better get a couple pics before I really soaked it

I coated 2 layers, then sanded down a coupe runs, drips and dead flies that decided they wanted to land on it and gave it one more. Any bumps on the pics are water or mud, there is virtually no imperfections, came out very clean and smooth, really happy with it :thumb:

Looks good! If I had a hard top i'd be doing that this weekend 
Light coats, learned it was better from spraying everything elseJacqui said:
I found when I tried to use thicker coats it tended to sag/run. The actual spraying took the least amount of time involved in the project so it wasn't that hard to be patient with.
Bed lined the outside ,painted the inside ,i like this better than white.

Guys you can use a RUBBERIZED undercoating instead of bed liner...will have much less texture, and would be a little smoother to the touch, so it shouldn't be as much like velcro.
Is a good look, though and I just redid my top today too I went with a VHT epoxy in satin black. Figured since my top was already textured I'd just paint it. I did use the rubberized undercoating on my door handles, wiper blades and mirrors and it really refreshed the black.
I like SEM rubberized undercoating the best. I get it from my paint rep, but I know Duplicolor also makes one that might be worth checking out....
