DualLiner Common Questions
|
- Is it harder to load my truck with a
DualLiner ?
If you are trying to slide something across the
bedliner - YES. But that is the point of the
DualLiner’s design. A bedliner needs to protect a
truck during 2 operations.
- First, most loading damage is caused by
dents (from bumping into the bed) and scratches
(from sliding across the floor). Impact
resistance of a DualLiner far exceeds the
limited dent protection of a spray-in. Your
DualLiner will resist sliding and is thicker
than any other bedliner - complete scratch
avoidance.
- Second, and where most truck damage occurs,
is transit damage - your cargo sliding and
slamming around the bed as you travel. With the
ZeroSkidTM
floor of the DualLiner there is no sliding, so
there is no slamming. No other bedliner comes
close!!!
In the end, you spend minutes loading and hours
driving. Give yourself the best protection available
for both!
- Is it a no-drill application?
The load guard and side pieces are held in place by
the existing factory cleats and push-in automotive
fasteners that do not require drilling. The tailgate
is held in place by the existing factory bolts
and/or screws and push-in automotive fasteners that
do need to have a quarter-inch hole drilled for
them. To eliminate rust issues, a blister pack of
professional rust inhibitor is included.
- How long does installation take?
Installation normally takes 15 to 30 minutes
- The local spray-in dealer told me to
beware of water getting into the bed without a spray
liner. Does water get under the mat? And does it cause
rust issues?
The truck manufacturers have spent millions of
dollars on perfecting paints for vehicles. Just like
the outside of your truck, the bed is designed to
shed water. Your DualLiner does not interfere with
the drainage holes provided by the factory. In
contrast, a spray-in liner requires your paint to be
sanded for proper adhesion (like any other paint),
effectively destroying the integrity of the factory
paint - and voiding the factory paint warranty. Rust
could form if you damage the paint in the bed.
However, the DualLiner provides better protection
than any other bedliner.
- Does water drain or collect under the
mat?
The mat has bumps on the bottom to keep the mat off
of the paint and allows water to run out of the
factory drain holes.
- Can the DualLiner be used with caps or
tonneau covers?
Yes, DualLiner bedliners have slots cut into the top
(out of view) to allow for the use of clamps. Most
caps and tonneau covers can be placed over the
bulkhead piece without an issue. If a better fit is
desired the lip can be cut off using a saw or
utility knife. Please use appropriate safeguards
when using these, and all tools
- Will the DualLiner scratch my paint?
DualLiners are designed to fit tight to the sheet
metal. This does not allow air to get behind the
liner and cause chafing like a drop-in bedliner.
- Do I have to be concerned about static
charges building up around gas cans?
The safest way to fill a gas can is off the truck.
However, the floor of the DualLiner is an insulator
and will not carry a static charge. All other
bedliners can build and carry a static charge -
especially when a plastic gas can slides during
transit.
- Will the bedliner fade or chalk with
exposure to the sun, or time?
No, the suns rays will not turn the DualLiner sides
chalky. The polyethylene contains UV resistant
chemicals to ensure that your liner stays black
without the need of additional color refreshing
treatments. The rubber mat also has a high carbon
black content that prevents fading.
- Is the floor a skid-resistant surface?
Yes, the rubber floor is a ZeroSkidTM
surface that no other bedliner can come close to
matching. A secondary benefit of DualLiner’s
ZeroSkidTM floor
is that it provides better dent protection than any
other bedliner.
- I just got my Dodge bedliner and there
is no cap on the tailgate. Is it missing?
No, because a large number of the Dodge trucks come
from the factory with a cap on the tailgate, we do
not include one in that application.
