pick up beds

Most of the ones here are coated. I ask the owners if they want anything done to the bed besides just cleaning, most dont want them protected.

As for non coated, I just use spray wax. Its too hard to do those things.
 
It's prolly best to keep it at washing out the beds. I made the mistake of waxing my box once....things slid from one end to the other when I turned, accelerated or stopped.

It sure looked nice, though--
 
If the bed is coated and in poor shape, (the ones used for construction mostly) after I clean and dry. I spray it with either flat or gloss black depending on the finish it has. Every time I do this the owner is amazed, and thinks I installed a brand new coating in his truck. I learned this from a body shop friend of mine and its a great tip. The paint is cheap, and good impressions go a long way. ;)
 
Im guessing that to Cause of all the inperfections in the bed and all the cuts and scraps on it from carrying heavy stuff.
 
as long as its clean/ dry/ and you use high quality under coating paint you'll be fine. You only use a thiin layer ust to cover up the imperfections on the coating. p.s. how do I get my picture on the home page :D :D :D :D
 
I'v done that for some customers as well, on big p/u trucks i've also done the frame of the truck just the parts that are visible. and sometimes even spray the wheel wells.

This is something I do alot you know the rubberized painted coating they put on some cars. usually the rocker panels. and sometimes it gets realy dull and faded looking try hitting it with some acrylic clear coat looks great and you don't have to worry about spend an hour trying to detail all the left over wax in the deeper parts of the rubberized coating...
