The bed of the ol mule has a few rusty spots, I was wondering does anyone know much about the spray in bedliner you can buy? I'm trying to decide on either killing the rust and repainting OEM red, or killing the rust and putting in a bed liner. The rust isn't terrible but I'd like to stop it before it is. What say you?

The roll on stiff works pretty well. I would rough up the bed first and spray the rusty spots with Rustoleum first.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I don’t have the spray in bed liner in the Kubota, but I do have it in the Tundra. That stuff really is tough. Worth the expense.

You will have to clean that rust off first and treat the area or it will continue to rust under the bedliner.

I have a horse stall rubber mat in mine from tractor supply. Just cut to fit and you're set.

Good prep and roll on Herculiner.
If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
