Bed liner does look good. If it boils down to it and you want me to say I can't use dupi I will. " I can't use dupi color bed liner" your welcome.

Did you top coat everything or just the blue? It's hard to tell but the black on the rockers and rails looks much darker and glossier than the duplicolor liner I tried. Everything I used it on turned dark gray after a few weeks in the sun.

I duplicolored my grill and yes after 3 years it was chipping in places but I just sanded and re did it and looks good as new. I bought a fancy grip you mount on the top of spray cans makes it much easier to control. You do get splatter if your not careful. Just had to keep dabbing the nozzle with some paper towel. I've used rustoleum to paint an entire truck and ya it sprays better, seems like it comes out of the can faster? It's harder to control an even texture with it though over large areas. Also had to dab the nozzle occasionally to keep spatter down. Both have there draw backs. Who the f cares. Ball busting is so easy on the Internet.

I would like to know this also. I have been thinking about doing mine. I have the light bar though so I wouldn't be able to do the windshield panels.

Yea my hood is messed up. I hate a matte black jeep. Wife used dryer sheets on hood to get bugs off. Wasn't good for the hood. Also sun is kinda fading it now along with the cow. Just trying to see what I can do. Hood is a big peice for me so makes it a lot easier for me to screw it up. Trying to decide if I should do it myself or not.

Yes it works great just not so great on a matte finish. Lol
