Bedliner faded roof...

Anyone done this? Results? Considering such on my 07 SR5...as is looking rough, no rust though.

 

Not sure what you are asking. What does bedliner have to do with the roof?

 

Are you thinking about painting the roof with bedliner?

 

I'm about to do my whole truck in a raptor liner. Something like this


I hear that the downside is that it can peel if the surface isn't prepped properly

 

YES! Applying bedliner to a rough sun beaten roof...as the thread title sez.

 

Might need to get it down to bare metal if the surface is rough. At that point a half assed respray might be a better option. 2 tone that bad boy

 

What about wrapping it?

 

Not into the peel and stick...

 

Yeah the downside is it looks like shit.

You'd be better off buying some good spraypaint and sandpaper.

 

Agreed...wrapping looks like chit. Paint & sandpaper is the Toyota approach...repeat, repeat, trade it in.

 

If you wrap it don't just do the roof, I prefer something like this.

 

Wrapping ain't happening. Gonna hit the roof with Durabak...film at 11.

 

That looks good

 

I heard the bedliner can have micro cracks over time letting in moisture and trapping it (creating rust)

 

Yes, but it's much easier & affordable than a paint re-spray. A good test ground for the hood, too.

 

I would rather spray paint the roof (after making sure there’s no rust) then use bedliner rust is the ultimate truck killer and the sheet metal on the roof is pretty thin as is

 

Prime territory for an SR5 convetible by then...
