I have used dupli-color spray on bed liner on my wheels , grill and rock rails and it has held up great so far, I get it at advance auto for $8.99 a can.

I used Duplicolor also and it worked well. Sprayed my front bumper with it. I would use it again.

+1 for the duplicolor. i used it on my fair lead, and subwoofer enclosure. i've seen it at almost every parts store and most places with an automotive department (sears, walmart, target, etc...)

Default Line-X

I had my 85 CJ7 Line-X'ed inside and out, but not underneath. Also had my tube front bumper done. And with a limited life time warranty, it's an investment. My whole Jeep cost me $1K and I am planning on getting my new '11 Rubi done after a few years.

Another vote for Duplicolor.

Did the inside of my freedom top, wheel wells after chopping the flares, touch-ups on the front bumper, etc. I'll do the outside of the top with it when I get a bit more un-lazy...

I agree. It takes awhile to harden. 3 hours at least. I did my fender wells and is perfect!!!!!

I've only used Duplicolor, but I believe one of the greatest contributors to a decent application of bedliner is the used of a "pistol grip" handle. I've tried spraying without the grip and it was very hard to control the amount of spray. With the grip - it was a breeze. Bought mine at Walmart for like $3. It also allowed me to spray the surface directly without having to use the overspray approach (when the Duplicolor begins to run out, it does start blotching).

Below is a pic of the grip I mention above attached to a can of Dupli-color.

I just used Rustoleum bedliner this weekend to do my grill. I am impressed, it has even texture and a very close color match to stock bumper and finders. It dries fast...I was second coating within 15 minutes of first coat.
