Al's Liner M1009 interior

[michigandon]

I read somewhere that the heat resistant / sound deadening stuff wasnt worth it. But 4 Parts didn't have it in stock anyway. Plus with the cost of the added product, I would have been way over budget. At that point I would likely have the pros do it. I preped for close to 7 hours and sprayed for 45 minutes. So it depends on what your time is worth. The LineX in my Dodge is 1/4 inch thick and bulletproof. But am happy with the Als Liner so far.

Interesting. It's all the same price at the local distributor. No extra charge for colors either. Unless you want white, in which case its ten bux more.

Just curious, have you had any problems with fumes as the coating dries? I only ask because the M1009 is an enclosed vehicle, as opposed to the bed of a pickup.

Yep, but the only colors that I saw that were stock were Black, Brown, and Grey. Not sure if thats tha same for you. I know there is some discussion about white. People use the automotive colorants for white, but I hear it can yellow quickly.

Is the local distributor a paint shop? or a 4x4 & truck shop?

I wonder where they are getting color from?

Maybe Als is coming up with more colors.

Yep.

It stinks, and I definately recommend a chem filter mask.
Harbor freight $19.99. I used this wile spraying but should have had it on when applying the Als primer. That stuff has some serious fumes.

Takes a couple of days for the smell to wear off, in fact its still slightly there as of today. But I drove it to work today with the windows up and it was not a problem.

Al's Liner. DIY Truck Bed Liners!

There are a few Youtube videos also. Looks like older versions of Als training video, and at least one home made. Worth a look. They kind of breeze over the prep work in the vids though.

Its like 10 seconds of prep in the video and spraying is around 30 seconds. But prep can take some serious time.

Just type Al's Liner in Youtube search & there you go.

Wow! For that price I would definately have them do it.
Figure around $425 with color match.

We dont have anyone around here (that I know of) that does Al's or any product for that cheap.

That desert sand would look really cool inside the green CUCV.

I just found a place here in CO that does the Scorpion Liners for around that price, I was thinking desert sand color myself!

Sorry to bring this up from the dead...

Are you still happy with it? Did it eventually harden more, or is it still rubbery? Thanks!

 

[baldyviewdesignlab]

It has hardened quite a bit. Can’t dent it with a thumbnail.
I have been pretty hard on the liner this last year, but no blemishes yet.
So gratifying to just hose out the truck after hunting.
Great investment especially for the price. I’m very happy with the Al’s Liner.
