I have had a drop-in liner in my old F-150 for a dozen years and loved
it. Now I need to protect my new Tundra bed.

Has anyone here used Herculiner? It's a $100 roll-on kit of
polyurethane and rubber granules for texture. Sounds good.

I'm not willing to pay $300 for a fancy liner or expensive spray-in by
a professional. What other options does a cheapa&H&H&H&H&H&Hfrugal
guy like me have?

I've not used it personally, but I've read a few reviews and all were
good. Your other option would probably be a bed coating that Duplicolor
makes, though I haven't seen any reviews on it.

What is wrong with spending $300 to protect a new truck that costs 100X
that? Do you also not want to spend the $100 on a set of factory service
manuals (or CDs) too? I order the service manuals at the same time I
order the truck, and by the time the truck arrives I know every detail
of it.

The $400 that I spent was a great investment. The pro coating is much
thicker than herculiner. It stands up to any abuse. Pays for itself
rapidly if you carry heavy metal objects that are pushed nito your
truck with forklifts.

i

back in the day, before double walled truck beds, I built plywood side and
floor protectors. Of course, that was a lot of years ago...

My parents, bought their first truck about 15 years ago. It has a bed liner
in it. Mom keeps a blanket behind the set, so she can carry loads in the bed
and not scratch the bed liner... I double over laughing everytime she pulls
the blanket out..... But, there are not scratches in the bed liner!!!!!

i used SEM tintable spray on urethane bed liner. sprayed on with a schutz
gun. it's ok, i like it, but i think a slippery liner is better. this one
is a kinda rubbery urethane non-slip liner. after using is for a while i
came to think a HARD slippery coating would probably be better than a
rubbery non-slip coating. (so you can push two pallet loads into the bed,
and pull them back out. once i put a pallet in back and there was a nail
sticking out of the pallet, it slashed the rubbery liner, i wondered if
there was a HARD slippery liner if the nail woulda just skidded across the
surface w/o cutting it.) i think it was about $150 for the kit. you can
get a pint of color matched paint and mix it in to match the color of your
truck, so you don't have to settle for black if you don't want to.

Thanks, Pete. I'll check it out. Y'think the extra weight of the liner
will help me stop more quickly? I love the 4-wheel disc brakes.

26x. g Because I don't feel the product is worth the price. Nor did
I feel that $170 for the bed rails was worth it, so I bought a $20
stick of Unistrut, hacked it in half, and put it up with $10 worth of
hardware and hangers. The yellow zinc coating blends nicely with my
gold bed color.

Had I thought of that, I would have ordered them then, too, but it'll
be a long while until I need service on this new beastie.

Disk are nice, particularly for off road use since they are self

Unistrut is remarkably handy stuff to have around. I keep some assorted

nuts, bolts and brackets.

I always buy the factory manual set, too, and check it for gotchas
like jacking / towing restrictions, difficult maintenance operations,
or special tools which I can usually buy cheap in a discount store.

I bought the factory bed liner for my truck one year later when the
dealer was selling them off at half price. It's good general
protection but when hauling machinery I replace it with a plywood
floor, front bed & window protector made of PT planks and a crane in
the rear attached by the bed bolts, with solid tie-down eyes low in
all 4 corners.

Thinking more deeply about it, I prefer a slippery bed, too, but not

slippery bed mat for that if I used it with a rubbery bed liner.
Hmmm, the plot thickens...

I was happy with a plastic drop-in before, and probably will be again.

Doesn't matter whether it's 'slippery' or 'sticky' bed coating, or a
molded 'drop in bedliner', if I slide in a pallet of anything heavy
into the truck I always put a layer of plywood or chipboard in the bed
first. Two layers of plywood if you plan to skid the first pallet to
the front of the bed by pushing it with the second pallet.

Then your load has something sacrificial to slide against, as wood
pallets ALWAYS potentially have loose nail heads and/or gravel and
rocks sticking out on the bottom friction surface. You could even
embed abrasives like that in plastic or press-molded pallets.

My utility bed is steel diamond-tread, and I still do that. Don't
want to mess up the paint too bad.

yeah, me too, i have a 3/4 inch thick rubber mat (i think it used to be a
conveyor belt, came from my previous truck's first owner). you can also get
"stall mats" from Agway, Tractor Supply ( whatever)
http://www.thegreathardwarestore.com...746&click=2744 .
the rubber is super grippy, it's difficult to push or pull anything on or
off it. the protruding nail slashed the bed liner on the wheel well.
(since i'd JUST got the truck and just finished the undercoat job (myself)
it REALLY ****ed me off) i thought if it was a hard coating instead of a
soft coating maybe the nail woulda skidded across it rather than slashing
all the way though to metal. i really like this rubber mat. i feel it
protects the bed not only from scratches it also spreads the load (rocks,
boulders) and prevents, at least to some degree, the sheetmetal bed from
getting dented as well. it doesn't rot, i've had it in the back of two pick
up trucks now. it's easy to take out to clean it and the bed. relatively
inexpensive.

I'll do the OSB thing, too, for those really nasty loads, but most of
my hauling will consist of ladders, lumber, and wheeled equipment. A
drop-in will continue to work fine for me.

Having a beat up truck guarentees right of way at intesections, and

I have had a drop-in liner in my old F-150 for a dozen years and loved
it. Now I need to protect my new Tundra bed.

Has anyone here used Herculiner? It's a $100 roll-on kit of
polyurethane and rubber granules for texture. Sounds good.

I'm not willing to pay $300 for a fancy liner or expensive spray-in by
a professional. What other options does a cheapa&H&H&H&H&H&Hfrugal
guy like me have?

Roll on a coat of Prussian Blue. That way you'll never put anything in there,
so it will stay perfect! You could lend the truck to pesky friends and
relatives...they'll never ask again.

Gonna loan me a barrel? Thanks, buddy.


You could probably get by with a five gallon bucket...

I don't know. It just doesn't go very far, does it?

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner
