Types Of Bed Liners
Several types of liners can be used for different truck models, so it can be difficult to choose the best one. With the different installation options, colors, and additional customization, you have to make a decision based on what type will provide you with the best benefits. Here are the different types of bed liners and the benefits you can get from each.
Spray-On
These types of liners are sprayed onto the bare metal of your truck bed for a custom fit and waterproof seal. They are permanent and are often used for trucks that see harsh elements frequently. Spray-on liners provide shock absorption, rust resistance, and moisture resistance, and are easy to clean and maintain. However, this liner option is one of the most expensive because of its custom nature. Not all installers are reputable, so vehicle owners need to do thorough research before booking.
Drop-In
The drop-in liners are one of the most protective options on the market for truck beds. Drop-in liners are made of thick plastic that covers the floor and side of the truck bed for optimal protection. These liners can be installed by the vehicle owner, but that means you also run the risk of improper installation. The cons of drop-in liners include possible cracking, high temperatures when sitting in the sun, and improper fit could cause build-up underneath the liner.
Bed Liner Mats
Mats are the most inexpensive option for truck bed liners especially if you are not sure about a permanent option. These thick mats will protect the bed from minor nicks, crapes, and debris. You can easily remove the mat from the bed of the truck for cleaning or replacement when needed. Bed liner mats often don’t cover the entire truck bed, which can lead to water damage to the original bed.
Customization Options For Bed Liners
Oftentimes, a vehicle owner installs accessories on their vehicle because of the aesthetic appeal. Bed liners are considered an accessory, but can provide better operation of your vehicle for your job or daily tasks.
Layton Carcare offers spray-on bed liners to our customers in multiple different colors including, black, orange, blue, gray, red, green, etc.
Durability Comparisons
In order for your bed liner to be durable, it needs to be applied to the metal body of the vehicle. If someone applies a new bed liner over old material, it may begin to lift or allow stray debris to creep under the liner. The durability of each type were briefly mentioned above, but this section will break it down further.
- Drop-In: Durable against scratches, dents, and chemicals. Prone to warping.
- Spray-On: Durable against water, debris, scratches, chemicals, and more.
- Mats: Durable against scrapes and nicks, but is not permanent so can be easily damaged when pulling items out of the bed.
When you get a bed liner from the experts at Layton Carcare, you will know you are getting the most durable option. Our team will strip down old liners so that only the metal of the truck bed is exposed. We also prime the bed before applying a new bed liner to ensure proper adhesion and longevity.
