Default Bedliner!

Want to 2 tone my Cherokee with bedliner right under the body line below the handles, I am hung up between cheapo rustoleoum or herculiner, or does anybody have any other options and also about how much have you all used?

I can't stand the texture of Herculiner...

I prefer the Rustoleum but if you don't prep the area perfectly it's going to flake off in a month.

Herculiner is definitely a lot coarser texture. Almost taken the skin off my leg a few times. I have used both Rustoleum and Herculiner. Herculiner seems to stick to anything, took about 5 days to get it off my skin, and hasn't faded yet. My Rustoleum faded within a few months. I recommend spending a few more bucks and getting the Herculiner

Rustoleum, prep and it works great. Good texture too, not to rough or smooth

Rustoleum bedliner is GARBAGE, I've tried it 3 different times and each can I've tried will only spray when held upside down, will not spray at all right way up. That and there is little to no texture to it and it will flake off super easy as said. Dupli-Color makes the best "rattle can" bedliner out there imo, at least that's easily available that is. Plasticoat makes another good one, only place I've ever seen it though was Tractor Supply. My XJ is painted all over with the Dupli-Color bedliner, then Desert Tan spray paint over it above the body line at the bottom of the doors.

Yeah I did have that problem. After about half the can it would stop and I'd have to turn it and it would like jet out. I bought 3 cans and could only use like 1 1/2 cans worth because the clogging

I bedlined my bumper with Rustoleum rattle can and its held up well considering I live in a hot place that eats away any paint. Prep is key and do at least 3-5 coats if you want it to last.
