Step 2: APPLY
After waiting 3-4 hours, check to make sure the Herculiner is no
longer tacky. Remix your remaining Herculiner and go around and
apply a second detail coat to your bed. Once you're finished, then
recoat the entire bed with the roller. We applied the second coat
extra-heavily in the foot areas and in the back where tools go. |
Brent decided that it would be a good idea to also hit the top of
the body where his hard top connects. |
The best thing to do is to remove your masking tape immediately
after the second coat has been applied. Doing this will make it
much easier than later, because the Herculiner will seal the tape
to itself. |
This is probably the messiest part of the job. Not only is the masking
tape sticky, but you have Herculiner on the tape, as well. I must
have gone through 8 gloves removing the tape. |
Step
3: DRY
Once you're done, the truck will need to sit for about 12 hours
or so in order for the Herculiner to fully cure before putting your
seats, etc. back in the truck. |
That's pretty much it! By tomorrow you will have one of the toughest
truck beds around. It looks great and it's durable. For a hundred
bucks, you simply can't beat Herculiner. |
