Bright White Raptor Liner on the WHOLE CAR

[hotracer_05]

Why? Because I got rear ended and was going to have to paint anyways. Is this for everyone? Hell no, I daily drive this bad boy and it gets knicks and scratches like crazy. This stuff is tough, and you can actually color match it to anything. There are plenty of videos showing you how to do it. I got the UPOL Shutz gun and ran it at 75psi and shot it about a foot and a half away to get the texture I wanted. PREP IS KEY, I sanded the whole car with 320 sand paper, if you are going from a darker color to lighter i recommend white primer after. You dont have to primer unless there is bare metal, but id recommend it if you are going lighter because primer is cheaper that the liner lol. Here are a few pics of the project

I am pretty happy with the outcome, and pretty easy to pressure wash :thumbup:

They sell black and tintable. The tintable you mix in whatever color you want! So you can actually to a color match to your existing factory color and just do the underside or bottom lip etc

Great job. Like you said, not for everyone, but I think whether you like it or not, you have to admit it's an interesting option.

[firebird1999us]

That's badass!

That looks fantastic. I thought about doing this to my last car. What’s the durability like? Like, if something hits it, does it separate from the existing paint?

From what ive read on other reviews, if you prepped it well it should bond pretty firmly to the surface you spray it on. I haven't hit anything yet...I'll post if i do lol

Thanks!

Definitely. People definitely do a double take when they walk by LOL

Interesting. I might refurbish my car with this haha

I have to take my front fenders out and get rid of the rust. But goddam I don't have time.

This stuff would be great for inside the fenders and underneath the car. Devolro is a company that builds RIDICULOUS tundras and they actually remove the body and coat the whole frame. Look up Devolro on YouTube if you get bored at work lol

Could you at least sand it down to a matte look? Wonder if it weighs your car down, body armor now.

The aux lights at least makes it more reasonable why you have durable paint. Like you are ready to go offroad.

It kinda has a matte look to begin with, but I wouldn't sand it. You can actually adjust air pressure and spray distance to get different textures, but I haven't seen anyone spray this stuff smooth. I used about 4 Liters of liner, which felt like it roughly weighed around 15 lbs

How's it holding up a few months later?

Man I'm seriously considering something like this. I'm at 330k miles and the the car gets sand blasted every day on the way to work courtesy of Georgia's interstates all being gravel highways because of road construction:mad:

I definitely recommend it! Tough as nails and looks pretty awesome i think

[firebird1999us]

Can you post some more pictures? Any damage from stone chips?

None so far, I've hit road debris (tire chunks, etc) and still holding up strong

hotracer_05 I like your attitude! "Just bedline the whole car."

My sister and I both have serious UV paint damage on the roofs of our Yarises (thanks Florida and Arizona respectively). I was thinking of sanding and plasti-dipping the whole roof, maybe make it a Japanese flag to tease the people who put a Union Jack on their Mini Cooper.

One drawback of your solution may be a rougher exterior texture causing more aerodynamic drag at speed. Have you noticed any difference in your highway fuel economy?

That would be awesome! I haven’t noticed any no, maybe the golf ball effect?
