Hey all!

I've got the Mineral Grey Metallic paint on my '20 Gladiator and was thinking of doing a color matched rhino lining or some sort of textured finish so I don't need to worry about touch ups and whatnot in the future.

Has anyone done this type of work before? Looking for someone to speak to anywhere around MA or PA so if anyone here has suggestions and thoughts, please send them my way!

Have you thought it through? Know a few people that have done it to late model trucks and all regretted it when it came to trade in time or resale.

Doesn't seem like a great idea. There is no going back. I feel like it would lower the value of your vehicle. Also any truck bed that I have seen with a liner in it never looks clean, I am sure partially because it is a truck bed but also the rough texture of the liner material is hard to wipe down.

I also have the dark metallic grey. I wouldn’t bedline it because of resale value. I did consider getting it vinyl wrapped in matte clear so it protects the factory paint but also gives it a slight color change

Every one Ive seen lined looked horrible after it gets dirty and is exponentially harder to clean.

If you cant help yourself, line your grille first and see how you feel about it

I matched the bed of a previous vehicle (Cement Gray Tundra) it looked great, easy to clean, and zero problems with trade-in. I also received a lot of compliments of the finish.

I did my 96 K1500. I really thought it was going to be tough to clean here in Oklahoma with our red dirt and clay. I can’t believe how easy it is to keep clean! I absolutely love it.

I did my truck three years ago I’ve sprayed it off twice It just doesn’t get dirty like I thought it would.
