Additional uses for Herculine/Linex - 5/15/2008 7:08:38 AM    turkeyhunter1962 Posts: 969 Joined: 5/16/2006 From: Belle Plaine, Minnesota Status: offline Has anybody tried coating their side or step bars with Herculiner or one of the commercial coating products like Linex? If so how do you like it? I am looking to coat my bull bar, step bars, and bed rails as they are beginning to show rust through the cheap powdercoating. _____________________________ 01 4X4 1500 Ext Cab Perf. 360,Dr.Evil-Pure Evil Tran/TC MSD6a IGN,Blast2,8mm wires Mopar round filter,3923's,Fastman 50 Flowmaster II,HS 1.6 RR APS Plenum,Cer Edelbrock Hdr http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2616731 Post #: 1

I've also got a fifth wheel tail gate to do. Wonder how much all of that together would cost if I did a lot of the prep work? _____________________________ 01 4X4 1500 Ext Cab Perf. 360,Dr.Evil-Pure Evil Tran/TC MSD6a IGN,Blast2,8mm wires Mopar round filter,3923's,Fastman 50 Flowmaster II,HS 1.6 RR APS Plenum,Cer Edelbrock Hdr http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2616731 (in reply to motorbrreath) Post #: 3

I mean the WHOLE truck. Interior, exterior, all of it. It looked really good, but it started to peel a little. We would spray the whole thing down with Armor All extreme tire shine, that truck stood out everywhere. Especially with that 360 punched .030 over. Professionally built, dynoed about 400 at the crank. I used to drive that thing sideways until it would scare me. He always wondered why he never had any tread on the tires when I drove it.

I think it looks good and from a distance it kind looks like a body lift. _____________________________ 1996 1/2ton 5.2 ,1.7viper rockers, fm tbody ,cold air intake, headers, flowmaster race 40,high flow cat, accel coil,under drive pullies, electric fan,5spd and 3.92 gears 3" lift, 305/70 R16 (in reply to Tarner) Post #: 15
