THE PROS

First off, a spray-in liner just looks good as it’s often contrasting the exterior paint color Next, unlike a drop-in bedliner, you don’t have to be super specific when it comes to the fit and application of the bedliner. It can be freely applied because it’s sprayed directly onto the truck bed. There’s no need to cut it to the exact right dimensions. You can even spray your whole truck if you want to. Lastly, spray-in bedliners have a rough texture. This prevents your cargo from sliding all over the place when moving fragile boxes or products for your customers.

THE CONS

The process of installing a spray-in bedliner destroys the existing factory paint in the bed of your truck. This will erase your truck’s corrosion warranty on any parts with a spray-in coating. Next, there is a lack of protection from dents and dings when loading or unloading cargo. It is essentially a paint and does not protect your truck from dents. Third, spray-in liners are more expensive than drop-in liners and need to be done by a professional (not a DIY project).
