Just curious.  Not knocking the product by any means.

I have heard that some bedliner products form a hard shell and have cracked from flex of the truck.
Don't remember which brand.
I would hate to have that happen on my wheel wells.

The picture that disappeared would be nice to see though. please.

if it cracks I will post it,,I havent driven the jeep much yet as it is an going project but should be on the road soon,,but by the way it feels now it should take some flex ,,and seems to be a good product , but time will tell

I've seen a display for that stuff where they sprayed it on thin gauge sheet metal and you could bend the metal to see the flex without it breaking. I don't remember if it was at a car show, or a 4x4 shop, but it looked pretty good to me. My body guy is using it on the inside of my firewall, in my cowl, trunk, floors etc to keep the rust away. He swears by it and uses it all the time when he replaces panels.

the only thing I can add is if you use the color type is to use a little more base color if it is a dark color as my jeep .. to get it the right shade or add just alittle black to keep the shade dark enough to match the color properly as it is a white in color if its the tin table version  and goes on alittle light in color compared to the base color of the auto you are painting , I darkened my to get it to match the rest of the jeep tub as it was much lighter when mixed as the directions lay out but as you can see it looks good , a lighter color would probably not need to be darkened as much  :2cents:

The jeep looks great. i besides the body panels I was doing the under side of the car. I have a 70 Challenger R/T born in L.A. the underside of the car would have been the same color as the car, Right?
