Bedliners that match OEM colors

I'm getting ready to paint my LC OEM Nordic Blue(#857). I want to coat the entire inside of tub with a bedliner product(Herculiner,duraliner,etc.). Does anybody know of a bedliner type product that can been bought of mixed with the same OEM color? I also want a product that is alittle tacky/rubbery, not the sand paper texture. Thanks

there is a product you can get at the local finishmaster paint supplier called color your hippo. been around since the 70s and the pro shops still use it. you mix it with your paint whatever that color may be and it turns out really well and doesn't fade either.


hope that helps

don't ask for hippo liner its called : "color your hippo"




but it works well

good luck

oh and about you not wanting the rough small grit sandpaper finish. your right on with this stuff because it lays evenly but the texture is VERY rubbery but not peelable ( given you do propper prep) and has a bigger texture to it. this stuff is exactly what your looking for. mine came out great. no pics up right now though. sorry

Color your hippo? That gots to be a April Fools Joke...

Use SEM tintable truck bd liner. Spray it with a shutz Gun and you gan get about any texture you want. Great tuff stuff...

Also the Raptor Tintable is good.

If the name really gets your panties in a twist you can get some of the other bed liners im sure. I am just speaking from exerience with this product exclusively. In fact it is the same company who makes gator gaurd, elephant hide and probably raptor liner. this is not undercoating shit its bedliner. Heres a link to the company:Manufacturer, supplier of Bedliner,truck bedliner,sprayable bedliners,pick up truck bedliners,rubberized undercoating,color your hippo,Automotive sealants,Protective coatings,Gator Guard, Anti Corrosion, gravel guard, Plastic repair, sealers,anti sto

heres the link to the liner:
products of the dominon sure seal
