If you buy the herculiner kit itd cost 90-100 bucks and that comes with a roller 2 of the roller brushed, a green kinda brilo pad but not, to dull paint but a electric sander would be way better if u had one, and a small paint brush to get edges with directions and.... Haha a gallon of herculiner. After 3 coats used about an 1/8th of it so ud prob be fine with a quart or so and that cost 30$ and thats if u have all the tools it comes with. But after doing this i want to do the whole underside and bumpers when i get them.

What's the difference between herculiner and rustoleum bed liner? Is one better that the other?

Not to sure id just go off the reviews herculiner seemed to have the best reviews as long as you take your time with the prep work i did a total of about 3-3.5 hours prepping.

Cool cause I'm using rustoleum and I'm hoping it will hold up well... I don't mind touching a few places up every few months or so though

Nice! So far I've used rustoleum on my grill, bumper end caps, molding, and rear bumper and I'm not finished yet

The spray on I'm using has a sand paper feel to it and that's good enough for me haha

I may just spray the underside and roll the sides, I like the rolled look. Also looking at pulling the carpet out to line the inside too ( have an old beat up 89 so the carpet is all wore out)
