    I'll gladly take you up on that offer. Whenever your free, let me know. But I will pay in money, beer, food, or a combination of the three

    Fort B, or DC?

    I live just off 395 on Seminary. I am usually home from work by 4:30. Next week is good, or maybe on the weekend.

    PM me.

    I do eat and drink!

    That looks AWESOME One question you have to let me know how it is to wash with the texture it has.

    It actually held up nicely. I loved it because if a rock hit me, it just bounced off and left no marks. The key is the drying processing before each coat. Patience is a virtue. LOL

    I bedlinered my motorcycle once. It looked good, but it is not super durable in the spray can form. Commercial bedliner is very durable, but both tend to fade. These days I would go with Plastidip. It is removable and lasts just as long, and is easy to touch up. IMHO.

    My husband and I did it, there is a step by step tutorial somewhere. We took pictures the entire time and documented everything.

    Great part about it was washing it. I hosed it down after a ride, everything fell off and no drying needed. I was really impressed with how it held up!

    I see you have an offer to do a joint project and I can't wait to see pictures. I did a tutorial, step by step instructions, exactly what I used and how we did it.

I was about to just buy the replacement parts from BRP. Would you bedline these for me? I would pay, but you lunch, you name it. I live in Occoquan right down the road from you.

    Good info. Do you mean I needed to let it dry longer between coats?If so, how long did you wait to help durability?

    Thanks,

    Thanks,
    I did it in the middle of summer. I put a skim coat on it and let it bake in the sun until it had hardened. I continued this process 3 times until it looked nice.
