Yes I used it on the handles and the cup on in the door under the handles. Just taped it off well and sprayed it while handles were on. Spraying the handles and under them at the same time. Makes the handles feel more rugged and not have a faded look

Just a better product in my opinion

So I guess it's just a user problem , because I have only used dupicolor and never had none of those issues

And they both come on in a spray can so how is the application easier unless you are not using the spray cans

Oh and I have used the dupicolor on grill , front bumper , rear bumper , sliders , front axle the whole axle , wheel wells , pinch seam , light bar mount , sway bar disconnects and tie rod and none of those have issues

Just his personal preference I'm assuming. And maybe you are in a different climate than he is? Either way I don't think it matters.

Just a heads up. You don't have to paint the cup behind the door handle, they make a black plastic insert that has a adhesive back and looks great and cost next to nothing. It also won't flake, scratch, or peel.....

Guess I pissed you off. I just think dupicolor is garbage. Big deal. Personal preference. I'm not trying to have an argument or a discussion about what kind of Bed liner is the best. If I wanted that I would have posted that as the thread stating "what is the best bed liner out of a can to use" but I didn't. Anyways I just wanted to show everyone my door handles. Thanks all for the comments.

You didn't piss me off I was just saying don't trash something that you are in control of or you can't use right

I didnt say which one is better I just said that dupicolor is not as bad as you made it out to be

In the wrong hands the best things in the world can turn to crap
