Bedliner Options
 

I have searched the forums and nothing really answers the question I have.

I am in the middle of a restore on my 71 Blazer and just stripped out the carpet and padding (which was glued down =:( )..


I plan on dynamatting ( or some other alternative) and new carpet, but prior to that I want line the bed with "something" to help prevent rust etc. It will cover from the firewall to the tailgate. Also, I need a DIY option.

Blazer stripped out..

The question what should I use? I looked at POR15, Herculiner, Rust-Oleum Truck Bed Coating, and just plain old primer and paint.

I don't really care about what it looks like or UV protection as I will be covering it up with carpet and dynamat. It just needs to protect/seal the cab/bed against rust. (ie rain when the top is down)

Any thoughts/ideas will be appreciated

Thanks

Rust should be treated before undercoating, IMO...I like this over POR15 www.masterseriescoatings.com/index/ the master coat silver fills in some small pitted areas....I also use U-POL Raptor tintable bedliner it uses urethane paint to tint, also comes in black.

X2 on the rust treatment...have you looked into lizardskin, heard good things about that product. Dusty has it on his blazer
