This is a short video on the steps I took to line my truck bed with Herculiner. I am no expert and my truck is used residentially only. The one gallon can provided 3 coats for my 5'7" bed. If you have any constructive comments or questions please feel free. Thank you - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Dude, idk if I’m more impressed with the liner or your playlist!!!
Ha ha. Thanks! It was a good stream from Pandora during the project. CZcams picked up on the copyrighted music and the video is outlawed in Iran and Syria they say. Oh well... They will have scratched truck beds
What kind of sand paper did u use? Do you think 2 quarts of paint will be enough? I have Chevy Silverado 05 Crew cab
i know it's quite off topic but do anybody know a good site to stream newly released series online?
New Found Glory, Sum 41, The Killers,
Great Music. 👍🏼
Good video!! Im doing my truck this summer!!!
Thank you! It will turn out great
Great DIY video. Looks like the extra texturing came from your overlap rather than a clump.
Love the Angels and Airwaves playing in the background!!👍🏻
Thanks! Pandora never fails me
Great job Kevin! I did this on my 99 Silverado, came out very nice! Has been two years now and still looks great!
Thank you! It seems to be a fine product
That looks great! That's a good tip about the consistency and making sure to stir it. Definitely going to try this on a few different projects and materials.
Thank you! I use it on all sorts of stuff now. I lined tool box drawers with it
Thanks for posting your the best, I’m getting ready to do mine thanks to you and that you placed all the stuff in the description thanks man
You’re welcome! Let us know how it goes. Feel free to ask any questions
Dude you did a great job 👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks for the tips
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback. Glad I could help!
Awesome bedlining, awesome tunes...
Thanks!
Looks nice well done my brother I will start my own soon
Looks fantastic starting mine today
Thanks! Good luck on it
Looks good my friend great job
Thanks!
Nice job look very good
great video !!! just what I needed is a good video on how to do this
Thanks! You’re very welcome
I always use more, than less, like you. Heavier the coat, I think it lasts longer
I'm gonna try it on my Ranger if it ever warms up !
It's an amazing product. I lined all my tool box drawers with it too
FUCKING FORD RANGER
Nice vid! I love your music choice. I listen to the same stuff!
Thanks! Pandora never fails me
Awesome and three coats, bulletproof now .
Thanks! For my light duty residential application it has been excellent
Great vid mate , just brought Herculiner to do my bed and carnt wait.
Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions
Outstanding video brother!!!
Thank you! Still holding up strong!
Buen trabajo, good job sr.
Thank you!
Looks good, thinking about Herculiner myself.
I have no trtt
Teyw
Looks good.
Looks super good gonna try on my 79 f150 the entire truck is black but when we got it painted they painters left the inside of the bed blue hoping this makes it look 20x nicer
@Thomas Campbell ended up super nice it’s super durable
Thanks dude. Good music taste too.
Thank you!
TY for taking the time to make your video. I am debating a Herculiner kit... this really helped. Thanks!
You’re welcome! It’s really easy to do. And so far it has held up well for me. At maybe $80 now it was a better cost effective alternative than a $500 LineX
Check out Raptor Liner kit it looks amazing for DIY. Nice job on Herculiner though.
I like it!!
Thank you!
Very nice!!!
Thanks!
Nice demo, Kevin. Truck bed looks professionally done! Thanks for explaining it so well. I also appreciate the low noise level of the music. Best is no music.
1. Use an angle grinder with a wire cup brush ($5 at Harbor Freight) to sand contours. Works well.,
2. Do you know if Herculiner is an Epoxy or a Polyurethane based paint? Epoxy has a shorter pot life land tends to crack under vibration.
3. Can you custom tint Herculiner?
Thanks for the compliment! Great idea on the wire cup. As for the base, it’s polyurethane. I do know it sat in my basement for years before applying and had no issues. I am not sure on tinting. I think it comes in a few basic colors. Raptor liner seems to be a big player in the game being tintable
@@hdkevin4387 Raptor Liner is an epoxy paint. This means short pot life and prone to crack under vibrations. Not the best choice for vehicles. It is also only sprayable, no brush work or rollers probably due to short working time before it hardens. Therefore I am looking for other solutions - polyurethane based paints.
Yeah... I'm going to take my truck to Line X when I get around to it. I'll gladly pay to have this type of work done on my truck in order to get it done right the first time.
Line X is the cats meow. Better than Rhino lining and other commercial installs. I'm going to save up for it on my next truck but I'm glad I don't have bare metal anymore. Ha ha
$1k min vs $100.
Nice job! New subscriber
Thanks!
Excelente
great music genre choice
Thanks!
The music is awesome! I think we have the same pandora playlist
Thanks! I never gave it any though until I got so many comments on it. Ha ha
I use roll on bed liner an its fine that has been two years ago today it looks like the day i done it
I think it was a great addition to my truck too
HD kevin,
Looks good & good job! Why didn't you do the upper bed rails? How thick you think it is after 3 coats?
Hi. The upper rails had plastic caps on them which seemed to be good enough for my application. I can't take a good guess, but maybe about as thick as 15 or 20 sheets of paper? For my light duty usage, it has held up very well
To reduce the lines, try rolling it one way. Good job tho.
Thanks! I'll give it a shot next time
Buen vídeo, enhorabuena gracias.
Looks really good! I just bought a new truck and I’m thinking about doing this. How much paint did you have left after the 3 coats?
Thanks! On my 5'7" bed i used almost the whole gallon.
HD Kevin perfect. Thank you very much! It was an excellent video and very helpful.
Nice
Thanks!
Herculiner is JUUUUNK! I learned the hard way. Should've used Raptor.
I will definitely check it out. I have heard very good things
In comparison too a 500$ raptor liner spray job does this even truly stay hard don’t chip? Peel? Has anyone tried sliding any usual bed objects or using the bed like a truck bed would be used and does it show wear /marks anything on the Herculiner ?
nice background music
Thank you! Pandora radio
So how's the bed liner so far? Is it a good product? Does it last decent?
I am thinking of lining and end dump semi trailer with this. What do you think??
Can a guy use paint thinner instead of acetone to wipe the bed of the truck clean
How is it holding up? I want to do this to my Ranger and would like to know if it's still holding up.
Nice job!, what #/type of the paint roller you used? or its a regular one?
Thanks! Google KG10204
Its a good question, i gonna try too😅👌
Is the sanding a must or can I skip the process ??? Reason I ask I want to do a whole inside of a 94 GMC Yukon...
I think it is a must. But if you’re not going to beat the heck outta it, you may be ok. I just sanded rather than “scuffing” or “roughing” it for speed purposes. There were some areas on the side of my bed I missed and it still looks the same as it did when applied
The holes on the driver side, are they drain holes?
Thanks very much you made it .what is the name of the paint called and were can l find one
Hello. I used Herculiner Part # HCL1B8. It is available on Amazon or other online stores
I’ve also seen herculiner at advanced auto parts and Lowe’s!
@@calebmorgan25 thanks!
Now do the outside of the truck with A BRUSH and a ROLLER.
Nice job man! Did you completed all 3 coats With only one gallon?
Thanks! I just used 1 gallon. It is a 5'7" bed so it is really short
One gallon will only do 2 coats at the most
@@JRs-guitars did you not just watch this man do almost 3 full coats?
@@ottallman super thin coats yep. I got only 1 and a quarter coats on my 6'4" bed. And this stuff is JUNK!
Que lija usaste
Is the texture given by the roller?
Did you let this dry outside? Does it matter if the sun touches it for hours? Thanks
I did let it dry outside. And it was cooler. There was come condensation on it. I noticed some color differences initially between some pieces but a few days later they all evened out
What type of roller do you use to get the texture? They sell the paint here but not the DIY kit that comes with the roller.

That can get your search started. There’s a lot of options out there
hi, how long time you have to wait between the 1st and the 2nd hand?
Herculiner recommends 1-4 hours between coats it when it is not tacky. I waited 24 just because I was short on time
What’s the name of the paint I got a ranger and I need to do this
Herculiner Part # HCL1B8
So how has it turned out now that its been a few months?
Hello. It is still just as good as the day I put it on. So impressed
@@hdkevin4387 good deal. Thanks for the reply. Keep getting after it brother
JMR Rebuilders you’re welcome! I apologize for the delay. I do not recall getting a notification about your comment. The only slight issue I’ve noticed is on the tailgate. I used the palm sander and on some of the raised stamping all the paint was removed. The coating did not adhere to it as well and it has worn off slightly from repetitive use of ramps. Otherwise the other near 100% is perfect
@@hdkevin4387 I’m constantly putting a lawn mower/metal tools in the back, do you you think this paint liner will hold up against that?
@@CarlosContreras-pz3md Hello. In my opinion I think you'll be ok! I do similar actions and have had no issues at all. If you're shoveling gravel from your bed daily I would be concerned. What is nice about this product is you can get a quart and touch up any areas that may get randomly damaged. And I believe there is a warranty too so reaching out to the manufacturer is a good option.
The herculiner I did faded so bad after only a couple months. It looked terrible
I’ve heard about the sun doing that. The tonneau cover I had and now a cap have really helped keep it looking new
Can I use a portable car compressor
The valve is too deep on the Ford unfortunately to for an automotive gauge to reach
Maybe you answered this already I couldn’t find it in the comments. How is the liner holding up?
Hello. I did a follow up video recently. It has been excellent for me as I do not haul rocks or bricks in it. I’m glad I did it and would do it again in my next truck. I also lined the drawers of my tool box with it
@@hdkevin4387 oh okay thanks. I’ll take a look and see if I can find the follow up video. Great idea with toolbox! I might have to do that too. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
@@timfoil2319 you’re very welcome!

What did you use?
Hello. I used Herculiner Part # HCL1B8
Great job and better still your not trying to act like a cool dude infront of the camera and pumping the lens with your hand and having a real annoying background music ,thanks 🤘
Ha ha. Thanks! Just being me!
@@hdkevin4387 I started watching about 5 videos before I found yours and had to stop watching with a few seconds ,you know the ones and when they don't look at the camera and look off to the side really ticks me off lol
@@crazycressy7986 I agree!
How’s the texture ect holding up after a few months?
john johnson it has been good! Thoroughly impressed. There’s so much texture on the tailgate you can feel it through your pants when you sit on it. Ha ha. I only have one issue on the whole bed and that’s the raised parts of the stamps I over-sanded down to bare metal. My aluminum ramps rub on it and have since worn off the liner back down to bare metal. But I probably have 30 or 40 uses on the ramps since then.
Take it from someone who actually moved stuff in his truck with Herculiner...the $hit peels off like 30 year old wallpaper...it's terrible. I'm pissed I spent all that time putting it on..2 hours of prep sanding and 4 hours of applying for nothing!!!!!!
@@JRs-guitars Man that stinks. I decided to go the cheap route since I do not haul bricks or gravel in it. A professional spray in bedliner would be the way to go for heavy usage for sure
@@hdkevin4387 that does make sense but the only things I have moved was furniture since I've put the Herculiner on lol. But you're right ...a pro spray in would be way better. I ended up putting a TechLiner over my Herculiner (made by weatherTech). It's pretty nice for only $250. (Includes tailgate liner).
JRindestructible ill have to look into that. Weathertech makes really nice stuff. Thanks!
Did you only use one gallon for all 3 applications?
Hello. If I remember correctly (and I think I mentioned it on the video but can't remember) I did three coats on the bottom of the bed and the tailgate and 2 coats on the inside side walls. My truck is a 5'7" mini Ram bed so I would think a typical short bed could only get 2 coats from a gallon
The sun will break it down fast, in one year I had factory paint showing through. Absolute junk, I am a pro so don't say I didn't do it right. I also ordered 2 kits. Hopefully you don't use your truck bed because the texture will grab and tear open concrete bags and if you slide in a sheet of sheet rock it will destroy it. Oh yah and if you slide in a sheet of melamine it will shave it to the factory paint because it is not hard enough and bad adhesion. I hate my 04 Dodge Ram anyway so it will look like cra_ until I kill it. Do Not Waste Your Time And Money!
Thanks for the info. Whixh bedliner do u recommend on a budget?
I have a tonneau cover on it and a year later it is still looking new. I have seen the sun destroy some too. I would not think someone with a commercial duty application would want to go this route. There are so many better options but cost way more. As they say, cry now or cry later...
@@funkymunky1275 I have heard very good things about Raptor Liner. I may actually give it a shot on a frame on a 2005 E350 this spring
Was thinking that im just gonna leave it regular and just use paint
Herculiner blows
Looks like crap. Why would you do something like this when you can get linex done for $500- $800 and comes with a warranty
I was being cheap. My next truck I will save up and get the Line X. Still holding up perfectly a year later
only because your to lazy to do it your self , out look great
@@quentinmccarthy9188 I’m not lazy in any kind of way. I work hard for everything that I have. Just because you don’t work hard enough to afford the small things like bed liner is not my problem.
@@evanwhale6127 Gonna come back and call you lazy. I have money, I can afford the line X, but instead I like to do it my self and save money and do it the American way, DIY.
@@upsidedownpeon9984 I’m not ever close to lazy. I’m actually a highly skilled union industrial painter and work more than most people do in two years in one
