After doing a lot of looking on the tinternet about u-pol bedliner, im now tempted to spray the whole body in the tintable one. Im doing up my 95 300tdi to pay for the doing up up my 88 200tdi. ( well thats what err indoors thinks). I think i will definatly spray the 88 in it as it will be a keeper but if i did the 95, would it demand a lesser resale price as oposed the a paint respray. So the question is, would you buy a landy sprayed with raptor bed liner or would you expect to pay less money?

What sort of finish are you thinking of, Mick?
The Mrs and I have just watched this.

Looks impressive. But, when it finished, we looked at each other and both said 'I liked it better before'!
Depend on what your after, I suppose.

I watched that one aswell. Like the black but i might use that on my 88 as that is already black. I was thinking of trying the tintable version for the 95, sticking with the original blue.

Sorry, GATSO. Not keen on that. The texture more than anything would put me off. I've looked at matt black cars and the catch my interest, but after a few minutes I think nah, not for me.
Anyway, up here 'north of the wall' it would be unbearable in the summer ;) :D
 
lol not to my taste either looks better in the flesh ,ok for a dog off roader as this was but as you say hot in the summer (if we get any)

Yep. Absolutely roasting in the summer.
 
being hot in the summer is not such a big deal here but driving along narrow country roads with overhanging bushes and briers, it dosent make sense doing all the hard work in preping the bodywork for a good respray in paint. I will look at some images of coloured finishes in the raptor.
