honestly i would go with some higher quality stuff its on the outside of your truck for everyone to see! make sure the prep work is good, and you should be ok. or you could do like the kid down the street from me and inbetween coats of spray paint just throw sand in it haha, looks great

I'm thinking about doing the same thing with my truck using the Duplicolor Bed Armor. The rockers on my truck are chipped pretty bad.

The duplicolor bed armor seems pretty good, there is many types that roll on and seem to be good but for best looks I would say spray on is the way to go but more expensive

Yeah, Duplicolor has the best roll on I've seen. My grandpa had the Rhino Liner guy do the rockers on his red 2008 Dodge 2500 and it looks really good. The only problem is that he was the only one in the area and he went out of business for some shady stuff or something. I'm thinking Duplicolor unless someone knows of a better looking roll on bed liner

idk about the bedarmor my buddy just did the bed of his truck with it and while its pretty tough i dont like the looks of it to chunky and rubbery looking, not sumthing that i want on the side of my truck. its more like a rubbery under coating type deal seems like to me. i want sumthing solid like paint not sumthing i can pick off with my finger nail
