I just lined my tub yesterday with ez line from Canadian tire (for all u Canadians on here).
We took out seats. Did some taping. Only folded up back seat since the bolts were a pain in the ass.
Did a light sanding with a wire brush on a drill. Taped it up. And use brushes to dab on first coat. And did second coat next day. Came out really well. Still drying though because we had a cold snap.
Here are some pics.
And by the way. This shit does not come off your hands. All three of us look great!

Try a can of bedliner. I raptored my sliders and thats what I touch up with. Blends well. Spray from about 15 -18 inches. Should give you about the same texture. I used EZ Liner from Canadian Tire

I'm going to let it dry over night then put humpty dumpty back together again.
Do you have anymore pictures of this, Just JK'n? I'm hoping to do bed liner this summer and i don't know if i want to do black or color matched to Jeep Green. Thanks.

I have a stupid question. Has anyone done this and put the carpet back in? I like the carpet, but I like options.
