Avoid BedLiner Scams
By definition, spray lining is a form of specialized coating.These coatings are used to preserve precious items when or where contingencies like extreme duress of loading, resistance or impression would damage coats of lower potency specs. “TRUE” spray liner or spray-on liner products, when applied correctly, maintain surfaces in working form for much longer periods of time under natural or mechanical requirements that would otherwise shorten the lifespan of these assets. Complaints about spray-lining elements often relate more to the applicator than the product applied. The most extraordinary asset to witness a high-quality spray-on liner application is in the beds of trucks, especially when the truck beds are operated for warehousing, shipping & liquidating large loads with consistent, daily usage or abuse, and accusations related to wear and tear regularly trace back to poor development of the exterior prior to spraying.
Many other items are worth spending on a precisely sprayed lining by a specialist who is qualified for spray-lining applications. These assets can range from pure capacity, as on a marine vessel’s deck, to decorative, as in a waterscape or Koi Pond, i.e., the need for a thick substance to bond under water regardless of ambient conditions. Keeping Koi Fish healthy by restricting the possibility of getting injured swimming across or contacting cement, jagged rocks and sharp gadgets while guarding against leakage might seem easy, but it’s no simple task in profoundly beautiful waterscapes. The cascades, designed with bright details, create marine friction that’ll etch the tiny cracks in stone beds, concrete or any surface these gorgeous items reside on (except fiberglass).
Some applicators of polyurea and polyurethane are supported by their spray-on chemical merchants; others are accredited by groups such as SSPC, PDA Spray Applicator Class, & NACE. The highest-paid applicators have valid certifications from both their spray-liner chemical vendor and at least one credible education entity.
As for DIY, most spray-on lining complaints with truck bed liners are with low-quality DIY kits available retail or online for relatively cheap. To distinguish between low-grade vs. professional-grade DIY bedliner deals, look for suppliers that reveal data, display product specs, provide “real” spray guns or spray lining devices, and compare with others in some logical, educational way. Also, you can be spray-lining “scammed” by “professionals” using low-grade DIY bedliners and representing these as ArmorThane, which is a professional-grade vendor.
DIY Koi Pond spray-on liners are a technological request. But criticisms are rarely or never Spray-Lining Infirmities (of Spray-LiningTM or) of any “real” applicator.
HOW TO PREVENT ANY SPRAY-LINING COMPLAINTS: Spray-Lining or any respected professional brand are the only polyurea or hybrids that operate. Period. These brands can be confirmed by literally inspecting the labels on containers used by your applicator and checking their certifications & credibility through references or reviews. As for DIY, most but not all DIY coating formulas are intended for use by an average consumer with little knowledge. For any high-grade material to function, it requires more than just buying the title “truck bed liner” or “professional coating.”. Product specs should be available, along with detailed information from people who know your specific needs, are available, can answer all your questions, and care about producing a high-quality job. Without knowledgeable human support & clear product specs, you can suffer the DIY or professional “Spray-Lining SCAM”!
