I have been thinking of doing this as well. check out durabak. they make a smooth exterior paint that is the same product without the silica sand. they also mae both textured and smooth in a bunch of colors

 

man that looks good for rattle can.i thought about doin mine but all the black rattle cans i see didnt look that great.how many cans did you use

 

just ten. i need to get about two more and do a couple more coats on the hood though.

 

i have a buddy who got his bed rhino lined about 6-7 years ago, and it didnt hold up. My dads tacoma had a line-xed bed that had been done about 2 years before he bought it...and that was 5 years ago. After 7 years, that bed looks just as good and is just as strong as a newly sprayed one(we pulled beside another and compared lol)
but thats only if you wanna pay to have it done

if you plan on doing it yourself then check out raptor liner, from what ive heard its the same stuff as line-x and comes with a gun and all for like 100-150 bucks

 

I agree, but if you use flat black it is almost impossible to mess up. It won't shine, but it will be one color. I've been thinking about doing it.

years back I had a goofball friend that painted cars with a roller. wet sand it real good with 600 or 800 paper and you won't be to bad however you do the paint

 

You don't need to wet sand prior to paint , just sand it down with 400 or 500 dry , I used the brush on rustoleum in the quart cans and thinned it down and sprayed it out of a spray gun , the paint is really durable and pretty cheaply priced and if u want u can buy a couple diff colors and mix em until u get a color u want , I used satin hunter green and lightened it up with some satin white
