Default Duplicolor bedliner

So I am thinking of putting this stuff on a homemade bumper I fabed up, I was just wondering does this stuff bond well to bare metal, and how tuff is it. Would it hold up better if I applied a automotive primer before hand. Also pics on ways that yall have applied this stuff would be good as well.

When I did my sliders (sorry no pics) I put a couple coats of self-etching primer on first just to be safe. They seem to be holding up pretty well so far although I haven't had the opportunity to test them yet.

I just got my new bumper from Mitch at Bulldog Fab today . It's also painted with the dupli color bedliner, it does have one pretty nice scratch from shipping but overall it survived the trip from AZ to PA pretty well.

I really like that duplicolor, very easy to touch up if it scratches. it blends in perfectly.

I did my grill with it a few weeks ago and I am really happy with the result. Has held up really well to bugs/mud/rocks. Plus super easy to touch up if necessary.

Sorry for the crappy pic. It was really foggy the morning I took this shot.

Anything in particular you are looking for? I have a few shots during the prep and painting I took with my iPhone and the a few shots after the install. If you want something more specific let me know.

Pictures from after install like from different angles and some distance. Pictures dont have to be quality just want to get an idea if I want to do this or not. Thanks again.
