Hey guys
Over the Christmas break I decided to spray the inside of the TJ with U-Pol Raptor bedliner. Here's a bit of a write up and lots of pics.
Product : Upol Raptor liner
http://www.ppcco.com.au/kits7.htm
Cost roughly $300 posted with a Schultz gun.
Comes in 4 x 1 litre bottles.
I used 1 bottle per coat.
Make sure you have a mask.
This stuff stinks!
Time took roughly :
Strip - 8-10 hour day
Wash/sand - 4 hours
Masking - 5 hours
Painting - 30 mins per coat, 4 hours drying time in between.
Let it cure for over a week as i went on holidays.
I had never used a spray gun before.
Was so easy to use.
Sprayed it at about 50 psi.
Recommends 40-70psi depending on the texture desired.
First thing first was to strip down the TJ
Seats out, trying to tackle the rollcage
Tools everywhere.....
Roll cage out! Torx bolts are a pain. Ended up having to grind the bolts out.
Now replaced with nice new hi tensile hex heads.
Drove it outside to wash using a stool. Nearly fell off haha
Gave it a good wash
Sanding it all down
Masking...Took ages to make sure i didn't miss anywhere.
First coat!
Texture after the third coat
Final product after a week curing.
If you are thinking about doing this I could not recommend it more.
Turned out so well.
My mate is thinking about ripping the carpet out of his GQ shorty and doing this now haha.
Cheers,
Paul
