i dont mean to be offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost my password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
I think it would look cool to use the black raptor liner to highlight some of the accessories like the grill, inner fenderwells, mirrors, bumpers etc. Kind of break up the green but still have the same texture throughout. You have a good aesthetic so you will find a cool look for sure.
With my experience with raptor you really have to shake it up for the gun that comes in the kit to spray well, also spray from far shoot the last 1/2 bottle at about 70 psi and from 5feet away to get a great texture. Also drug the corner of a car battery on it and not much happened 🙂
She’s coming together now. Can’t wait to see the interior. I think the truck needs a fat roll bar with a row of KC day lightrers across the top. Old school!
Fyi, this stuff is legit! Used this to line the lower section of my 07 yukon and the front and rear bumper 2 years ago. Still looks as good and holds up well.
I just did my 8’ ram bed 2 weeks ago. I went through 8 bottles and could of used 4 more to give it the coating it deserved. But it still came out nice with 8 . Just saying
I use the professional raptor gun amzn.to/3UmwMxO It works so much better than the cheap one you get! I use a regulator at the gun and shoot at 70-80 psi!
Well done as this is cheaper than going to the lining business to install the bed liner. Don't forget to install a bed mat to protect the bed in a deeper level.
Your methodical, diligent, deliberate approach to everything you do is always inspiring. The efforts you go to do the job as right as you can is a lost art. I have to admit I need to slow down and take a page from your book and start really paying attention to the details like you do. Thanks for your videos man! Looks great as usual 👌
Should kill 2 birds with one stone. Spray a matte black panel over most of the hood to 1) get rid of the lines, and 2) create an anti-glare surface like many Ford Raptors have. This is particularly useful if you intend to install roof lighting. Could even get some "TOYOTA" or some other stickers to mask off green accent areas. Could even add a little matte black flavor to the bed sides too.
Great build you got going on. I'm a big fan of Raptor. I did a Jeep Commander with the Vari-Nozzle gun this past July, and love it. 50 psi two turns out, and got a nice sandpaper like finish. I picked up a 99 Tacoma last year that I've been working on, and can't wait to Raptor it next year. It's green so it'll be green with a black bed like yours. Looking forward to seeing yours back together. Bed looks good black.
I did my first gen tacoma with the roller raptor bedlinner... CAME OUT GREAT the only down side is the rollers are very cheap and begin to break.. I give Raptor bedlinner an A+++++
I have sprayed raptor liner on my 4runner but i did try spraying it a bit far away like 18 or 20 inches away and pressur at 80 and it did turn out very nice
Man both trucks look great! I was wondering, might you be able to go into detail about mixing the raptor liner and the paint you like to use for those results? I believe you use Omni. Also what setup do you have for the spray gun? Like water separator and pressure regulator and things like that. If you’ve already done this could you put a link in please? Thank you.
In some of the comments it’s interesting to find out you can clear coat raptor ! So You could put flatting base in the clear for totally flat finish! Interesting!! How flat is normal raptor say compared to flat black? Does it have any Sheen in the sun!
nice video. I know you mentioned that you used 10 bottles (quarts), is that including the bed or did the body just take 10 bottles, and 4 for the bed, making the total 14 for the body and bed together?
Awesome job man, truck looks sick! Do you mind telling us what tint you used for the green? Trying to find the right shade of green for my 04 Silverado. Thanks I’m advance man.
I'm really enjoying the content of your videos, if I could just say that not all of your subscribers are men, I'm a woman and I've noticed you always say "and there you have it boys", so maybe a shout out to all the ladies who watch your videos.... thanks Schelley
pant in a cross pattern to prevent some of the stripe effect. two coats if you can one to tack fast an thin one to fill. An make sure to use a mask with this stuff folks. Have had it on a cj7 hardtop and armor kit for 3 yrs now. still looks great..
Dumb q, but when it eventually fades, how intensive would prep be? I'd imagine doing multiple coats over time it would become too thick for door jams and such. Is it easy to sand down? How long is the pigment rated to last in the sun before it fades?
@@austinniemela I know Linex fades in about four years. And all pigments fade, like any paint job. I live in az so uv protection and pigment strength is important to me.
TH-cam still has a subscribe bug, seen this in my feed and it showed that I wasn’t subscribed to you. Anyone else have this issue? Other then that it’s looking premium my guy ! Hard work pays off man and your a great example of that! Edit: side note has raptor not got in touch with you about sponsoring?
Hows that bed liner holding up? I took my 89 Toyota pickup to a place that specialized in just bed lining….my bed looked like yours…they told me it would start peeling off within a year because the bed liner sticks to the clear coat and not bare metal…..
How much weight does it add doing the whole truck? I have a super duty crew cab and want to do the whole thing, but the truck is already a dog and gets horrible gas mileage so don't want to bog it down more lol.
Ive been watching your videos the past month or so and im always looking forward to the next episode. The trucks looking good man. Makes me wanna go buy an older yota and get it built. Ive got a newer tundra ive built but its nothing like the older ones
Today I was giving some grief to one of my work mates, he sold his diesel 87 DC Hilux some 10 years ago and he is still cursing, And the person that bought it still has it!! Lol I Still have my 89 extra cab 22R and my 03 Duel cab 1KZ-te diesel! Best utes ever made!!!
Raptors no joke my jeep and sonoma have it pretty tough and ace hardware satin black rust stop paint matches pretty close for color touch up when you scratch it
I got my bed similar to raptor liner but mine was scorpion liner Walmart course and I had somebody professionally do it for me and all those tow strap hooks or tiedowns you would call them that are in the bed those guy also sprayed with bedliner they didn’t take them out like you did
You’ve quickly become one of my favorite TH-camrs and I look forward to you uploading. Keep up the good quality content 👍🏽
Thank you!!!

I straight wish I could build Toyotas like this guy
Don't let your dreams be dreams. Go for it. You can do it too.
You should spary Toyota in black on the tailgate

And a net tailgate 🤣

Bed turned out great, I enjoyed seeing the process of applying the Raptor Liner ☮️
Do you recommend using a better applicator then what U-Pol offer in the kit? What psi did you have the compressor @, Nice job.
I use the professional raptor gun amzn.to/3UmwMxO
It works so much better than the cheap one you get! I use a regulator at the gun and shoot at 70-80 psi!

Awesome, this guy is very very professional
I'm lovin this build SERIES. You do great work. Thanks for wearing that mask- shield.
13:50 Dude! why not sandblast and paint those rusty anchors?
I saw 'em too Generz. That's not like Austin to overlook something like that! I'd spray em with bright cold zink.
Thinking I might powder coat them when I am set up. Paint won’t hold up on the hooks
@@austinniemela Yes sir, that would be awesome.

when painting over a ‘toyota sticker’ would you just pull the sticker off before the 2 coats cure?

That’s badass! Definitely going this route with my truck when I’m ready to paint.
I did my first gen tacoma with the roller raptor bedlinner... CAME OUT GREAT the only down side is the rollers are very cheap and begin to break.. I give Raptor bedlinner an A+++++
Do white rims so the tyres are popping 😊 hell of a job you do , awsome 👌🏻💪🏻
Thanks!
is this good idea to underbody coating for my racecar ?
Yes lots of people use it for underbody coating!!
Ok, looks GREAT. Bed made all the difference.
I have sprayed raptor liner on my 4runner but i did try spraying it a bit far away like 18 or 20 inches away and pressur at 80 and it did turn out very nice
What about a Duke's of Hazzard style wheel? Black would give it an "Overlander" look.
a nice rear black bumper should look nice on that truck ; )
Indeed!
Man both trucks look great!

Monstaliner is the shit. A lot of colors to choose from too
In some of the comments it’s interesting to find out you can clear coat raptor !
So You could put flatting base in the clear for totally flat finish! Interesting!!
How flat is normal raptor say compared to flat black? Does it have any Sheen in the sun!
Yes!! The raptor has a slight sheen, I’d say a matte finish
Thanks mate!! The Tojo is coming out nice!
dude th\s is amazing 🤩im almost starting my bus project so that’s ts gonna help more , thank u
What brand and minimum requirements for the air compressor?
Can’t wait to see it finished up... Looking great 👍
Thanks 👍
I really loved the paint, are you thinking of changing the size of the tires?
Yes going with a bigger size tire!
Are you going to paint over the chrome/metal on the front windshield?
Haven’t decided yet!
Yea he will. It needs it.
Flat black!!
Lol, I’m just nitpicking your own work. Truck is looking good!
Buen trabajo, good job sr.
man that thing looks awesome, good job
Thanks!!
Awesome, nice job
nice video. I know you mentioned that you used 10 bottles (quarts), is that including the bed or did the body just take 10 bottles, and 4 for the bed, making the total 14 for the body and bed together?
Greetings from Mexico brother, I like your carnal videos, you do a good job and more why I like trucks haha, carnal greetings 💪💪
Quick question, how big was your air compressor that you used to spray the bed with? 5gal, 8gal or something like a 27 gal compressor?
Mine is a 60 gallon!
Wish I had one of those! Do you think a smaller compressor would work just as well?
@@josephhart9600 yea should be fine with 25-30 I suppose
@@austinniemela Thanks! Keep providing us with great videos!
Oh, did you remove the plastic tabs in the bed before you sprayed?
Awesome job man, truck looks sick! Do you mind telling us what tint you used for the green? Trying to find the right shade of green for my 04 Silverado. Thanks I’m advance man.
I just had a paint shop mix it up, its custom!
@@austinniemela oh okay cool man thank you.
can this be used on undercarriage and frame as well ?
I dont see why not!
Waiting to see the seats, I have the 60/40 split and really don’t enjoy them although they have been there since 92 and holding up pretty good
Looks really good. 🇺🇸💪🏼

Recap: entire truck....10 bottles, 2 coats, 60 psi. Ty. Great videos. Looking forward to doing my whole truck too.
I like what you have done, one question. When the Raptor is fully cured, is it rubbery or hard?
It dries rock hard!
@@austinniemela Thanks for the reply, I was hoping it would be more on the rubber side of things.
pant in a cross pattern to prevent some of the stripe effect. two coats if you can one to tack fast an thin one to fill.
An make sure to use a mask with this stuff folks. Have had it on a cj7 hardtop and armor kit for 3 yrs now. still looks great..
Mask is needed, this stuff stinks haha kill a few brain cells lol
for cross pattern the second coat is done perpendicular to the first?
how do you get a fast tacking coat?
do you recommend always remove masking while paint is still drying?
@@zackscott8636 It makes life easier and prevents jagged edges....
Those pants have been on a slow downfall since the beginning of the tdi yoda 😂 keep up the good work man.
Hahahaha tell me about it! Still holding strong lol
those bolts on the tailgate you should raptor them green too
Hey man how did you mod the gun the kit sends with it? Do you have a video of that setup?
It's looking good mate 👌
Thank you!
Nice work once again. Looks awesome 👍
Thanks man!
Dumb q, but when it eventually fades, how intensive would prep be? I'd imagine doing multiple coats over time it would become too thick for door jams and such. Is it easy to sand down? How long is the pigment rated to last in the sun before it fades?
I havent heard of any fading issues!
@@austinniemela I know Linex fades in about four years. And all pigments fade, like any paint job. I live in az so uv protection and pigment strength is important to me.
You can clear coat it to make sure!!
Looking sick
You had me liking this whole truck into you mentioned black wheels Y Y 2014 Toyota 4 runner wheels
nice job
Thanks!
Nice work, so the professional gun I’m assuming that the less turn out on the tip/nozzle the more/heavier texture?
Other way I believe. The more you thread out the tip the more raptor comes out!
Great video loving the content you go into great detail which is nice thank you from the UK 👍
Your welcome! Thank you!!
Solid as ever 🤘
Mint 👌
Looks good 👍
Thank you!!
How many coats? 1 or 2?
TH-cam still has a subscribe bug, seen this in my feed and it showed that I wasn’t subscribed to you. Anyone else have this issue?
Other then that it’s looking premium my guy ! Hard work pays off man and your a great example of that! Edit: side note has raptor not got in touch with you about sponsoring?
Looks amazing man!!
Thanks!!!
Nice job. Watch you and your brother back to back. Look forward to seeing more.
Thanks man!!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The gun that comes with the kit also has an adjustable tip. How is the professional gun any different?
Not any of the kits I bought! I have 3 of the free guns and they aren’t adjustable
The gun that comes in the 4 liter kit isn’t adjustable, it shoots well you just have to mix the bed liner really well for it to shoot evenly
@@austinniemela I ordered a 4 liter kit in black and a 6 liter tinttable kit. Both were adjustable. Have you tried rotating the tip?
@@harut82 well it has the tip that threads in but doesn’t do anything when you move it, completely different gun
Парень, это очень круто!
Tired of repainting my utility trailer, gonna give this a try. 🍺🍺
Thank you I really like it 👍🏼 keep doing more stuff
Thanks, will do!
best youtuber ever
Thanks man!
Looks good man, Raptor liner is the cats azz.👍
Thanks 👍
Hows that bed liner holding up? I took my 89 Toyota pickup to a place that specialized in just bed lining….my bed looked like yours…they told me it would start peeling off within a year because the bed liner sticks to the clear coat and not bare metal…..
Can you put a clear coat over the exterior material ?
Yes you can!
@@austinniemela Thank you.
@@austinniemela Thank you.
I have a brand new truck. Do I need to scuff up the bed before I apply the coating?
Yes you do need to sand!
is their any cheaper version of bedliner white and black paints RAPTOR LINER PAINT IS OUT OF MY BUDGET
The truck is looking cool Bro. Looking forward to your next video!
Thanks 👍
Def color match the grill. Black bumpers and rims. Truck looks awesome!
Yes!! 👍
Looking good
Thanks 👍
good job again a time.
How much weight does it add doing the whole truck? I have a super duty crew cab and want to do the whole thing, but the truck is already a dog and gets horrible gas mileage so don't want to bog it down more lol.

I should have never got rid of my 91. I miss that truck
Today I was giving some grief to one of my work mates, he sold his diesel 87 DC Hilux some 10 years ago and he is still cursing, And the person that bought it still has it!! Lol
I Still have my 89 extra cab 22R and my 03 Duel cab 1KZ-te diesel!
