I bought U-POL RAPTOR Two-Liter Black Bedliner as part of my camper van equipment.

Comparing Package Size After the Preparation Work
I taped the bodywork boundaries and covered the unpainted areas.
I sprayed the prepared exterior with white-tinted bedliner.
I inspected the finish after removing the masking and recorded the areas that needed touch-up.

My Takeaway from This Job
The preparation was a substantial job before any coating went on. My two-liter black RAPTOR purchase offers a smaller package within the range; the larger RAPTOR kit is a size variant, while Herculiner changes to a roll-on coating system.
Package size and application method are separate coating choices.

Mixing
3 parts RAPTOR to 1 part hardener
RAPTOR black bedliner uses a separate hardener, making mixing part of the coating job rather than simply opening an aerosol can. The manufacturer’s technical sheet covers surface preparation, mixing and application methods. For a van project, organize the masking boundaries, prepared panels and coating equipment before activating a batch. Bottle-kit spraying and roller application create different textures; the black coating system also remains a separate choice from automotive color paint and clearcoat.
How Does Bottle-Kit RAPTOR Differ From Aerosol Bedliner?
The bottle coating is mixed with its hardener before application. An aerosol is a separate product format with its own directions; its preparation and recoat instructions should be read separately.

Two Alternatives to Compare
The larger RAPTOR package is a size variant within the same range. The Herculiner kit is a separate roll-on coating option.
