Last weekend I sprayed my Dad's boxliner in using Duplicolor Bed liner. It was sprayed in using a shutz gun @ 50 psi. FYI: Canadian Tire does not sell Hippo Liner anymore. The Duplicolor product turned out very well. It also comes in spray cans for a smoother finish, which is what I used on the rocker pannels. (even the product from the spay can hardened very well, which kinda suprised me) It can be rolled on as well, but you get better results from spraying. It took 7L (2 cans) of premixed product to do the whole bed nice and thick.

The rockers were done with the aerosol, the bed was done with the premix, using a Shutz gun. I wouldn't use the aerosol on the bed as it comes out too thin and smooth. See the pics of the rockers.
