I just thought I would share some before and after photos of my latest project. I just finished installing Raptor Liner on my truck. Picture 1 is a before pic, picture 2 is what it looked like after I sanded the entire bed with 120 grit sandpaper and cleaned it with acetone, Picture 3 is how far the first bottle of Raptor Liner went. Pictures 4 and 5 are the final results.
It took me about 6 hours total to complete this application. I have the 5'7" bed and I felt that I had plenty of product. I am very pleased with the results.

Impressive. If you don't mind me asking, what was the cost of this compared to your choice of spray in liners? Also how does it feel in comparison? And lastly don't forget to update your information to reflect the new truck!
Looks awesome the only thing I would of done different was to remove the access panel on the tail gate and spray separately The screws look like they were coated also in the picture, May be a bitch to get off cleanly if work is needed to tailgate handle
The kit was $128 online. I spent another $30 at Home Depot for acetone, sandpaper, plastic and paper.
It looks and feels great. I attached a close up photo. The finish exceeded my expectations. It isn't as thick as my friends F150. He has a line x spray in liner. My liner looks better than his at the moment. His has faded and discolored since it was installed in 2013. I sprayed the wheel wells and tailgate with extra thick coats. I have a heavy rubber bed mat for the floor of the bed so I wasn't as concerned about the floor area.
I too thought about removing the access panel. I decided against it. I have had 5 pickups in my life and I haven't needed to access that area on any of them. I probably just jinxed myself, but I will take the chance.
Did my whole frickin truck i like that Raptor liner so much no rust or scratches for me!!!! Check out my gallery no B .S. That easy stuff to work with.
I helped my son do the interior of his Jeep Wrangler. We used herculiner, do to a time and budget restraint. All the info and videos' I saw whether it was one product or another, prep is the key. We spent more time on prep than we did coating it. We ended up rolling his on do to size of truck.
