I roughed it up as good as I could and cleaned it well

Inside of Beds take a beating that is true(prep is key)....For outside body panels (that dont get stuff thrown at and on them) it works great. For the inside of a bed that get chain,tools, etc etc Line x or Procoat is a better option.

For body panels it might work, but I did this about 2 weeks ago after I removed the stock drop in liner and its already worn. Many places it was gone after 2 days. I am just holding out until the spring to get rhino lined.

God for body panels, TERRIBLE for beds

No not terrible....Duplicolor bed liner is TERRIBLE for the inside of a bed. If you prep this right and are not a lumber jack it will hold up good.

I won't insult your intelligence like some here but it's a pretty straight forward task. Sanding,masking,priming and spraying. If you take your time and prep it well it will turn out great.

I know how to use a rattle can probably better than the insulter :rollseyes:
But i was saying make a how to in order for other people who are not very familiar with sanding, preping, primer, and painting (not me).
