BOB47 Posted July 4, 2004 Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 All I use to keep mine clean is soap and water and a very thorough rinse. The best thing to stop fading is a Tonneau cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r8rs4lf Posted July 4, 2004 Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 I have heard that there is a product out there that kind of restores your liner to it's original condition, sorry can't be more help. As far as fading, yup a tonneau cover is your best bet! I never would have got a spray in liner if I didn't get a cover. The fading looks like @$$!

BSER Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 The best way to stop the fading or oxidation of your liner is to get a Line-X since they hold color better and don't have the oxidation issues rhino has. Oops, you probably didn't want to hear that. Power wash and rinse your liner throughly than apply a product called Just Once with a sponge. Pinnaclewest.com also has a bedliner renewal product and it comes with an aplicator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan06SS Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Home Depot has a 1450psi pressure washer on sale right now for $89! or a 1800psi washer for $199.... I suggest you get one of these anyways. Makes a short work of the underside, wheel wells, and bed of your truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a Line-X'ed bed that was really faded. It made the truck look like shiznits. I'm pretty sure there isn't too much you can do to stop the fading process. Why don't you just get a cover and be done? Late- Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they charged full price for it that would be way cheaper than a good cover. From what I've seen of the local Line-x guys I think they will stand behind the product and take care of me.

I really don't see the logic in that statement. Why not just buy a cover and protect your investment right from the git go? If you don't want to cover up your bed, then I would think you should expect it to fade. What happens if it keeps fading (and it will) year after year, you still going to take it to them expecting them to take care of you? Who even knows if it will stick to a layer of Line-X? If they take care of you, then cool! I don't know how much your paying for Line-X, but in my case, paying for it again would be a little bit cheaper than a tonneau cover.
