RAPTOR LINING JANE : Spraying New Life into the Tub of an old Jeep CJ5

We were pretty lucky with Calamity Jane, our 1974 Jeep CJ5 Renegade, in that her floor pans and bed were relatively whole (as opposed to being filled with “holes”) and surprisingly rust free. Sure, there were a few issues that needed to be addressed but nothing you wouldn’t expect to see on a Jeep that’s over 40 years old. More than anything, the inside of the tub just looked worn out and tired and to help give it some new life, Cindy and I decided to spray it in with U-POL Raptor Bed Liner.

In the past, we’ve used other bed lining products that came out of an aerosol can and found that they tended to come out too thin, lacked a good tooth and chipped or was damaged easily. We’ve also used products like Herculiner which looked great initially especially if you sprayed it on but it tended to fade quickly and went from a nice glossy black to a dull gray in less than a year. U-POL Raptor Bed Liner has been around for a few years now and of the vehicles we’ve seen it applied to, they all have been able to stand the test of time both in terms of durability and in terms of looks. Of course, what I liked most about Raptor Liner is how it comes packaged in individual bottles designed to be attached to an undercoating gun and can be sprayed on with ease.
