Scorpion XO2 is a batch mix, low pressure spray in bedliner.  When the patented acrylics blend is mixed to the polyurethane the result is durability and flexibility.  This mixture has a high level of UV stability, is abrasion resistant, and extremely tough. The material bonds directly to the prepared metal of the truck bed, which means no water, no dust, dirt, or anything else can ever get between the truck bed and the XO2 liner.  This avoids blistering of the liner that can result in cracks (which defeats the purpose of having a truck bed-liner in the first place).

To make sure other areas of the truck are not affected by over-spray, you can use paper or plastic to provide protection.  Remove the tailgate and set it on a raised surface somewhere off to the side.  If you are applying over the bed rails, leave the tailgate on until you set up your tape lines. After you have done that, remove the tailgate.

Scuff, Clean & Fill in Holes

The easiest way to accomplish proper scuffing on your truck bed liner is by using our variable speed polisher.  This uses nylon bristles to roughen up clear coats of paint or bare metal.  Keep in mind that you don’t need to scuff paint down to the bare metal.  Scuffing is meant to put scratches in the clear coat so that our bed liner material adheres properly.  As the final part of the scuff processcupbrush, you will need clean the bed liner surface and fill in any holes or imperfections by using polyurethane caulk.

Prime

The XO2 adheres extremely well to an adhesive that is applied onto the paint first. The adhesion promoter was developed for this purpose is called Scorpion 8001 Adhesion Promoter.  If this adhesive is professionally applied to the truck bed liner first, then the XO2 can bond to this adhesive.  The result is a seamless, watertight coating that protects the truck bed from almost anything, including scratches, corrosion, rust, chemicals like hydraulic fluids, 20%-hydrochloric acid solution or 37%-hydrofluoric acid to name just a few.

Spray

algunBy now, you’ve mixed the X02 and added the color you want to spray.  To accomplish this successfully, we recommend using the Scorpion Spray Gun.  Hold the gun 18 inches away from the truck bed and slowly pull the trigger back just until the gun begins to spray.  Be careful not to pull back too quickly or too hard.  Move the gun with your arm (not your wrist). Spray until you reach the thickness and coverage you desire.
