For the plastic, clean clean clean.

For surface prep, Don't laugh, but I whip blasted them with the sandblaster. Yes it leaves it rough and ugly. Your spraying on bedliner, no one will ever know.

Edit in, Clean it after you sand blast it. or thoroughly scuff it with 80-120 grit sand paper.

Then their acid 8 Primer.

Last Raptor bed Liner

I did the valance, fender flairs in tintatable white on my 03 Sierra. I also did the plastic pieces for the rear bumper and the plastic bed rail piece in black . Even after a year of stepping on the bumper constantly it's held up well.

I used 80 grit sandpaper paper and an orbital sander over the whole thing. You definitely aren't trying to break through the paint just scuff/etch the paint.

If you break through the paint use #8 https://www.amazon.com/U-POL-ACID-PRIMER-M-I-R-COMPLIANT/dp/B003ZWDZ9I/ref=mp_s_a_1_28?keywords=raptor+bed+liner&qid=1550451327&s=gateway&sr=8-28

  1. Wash with a non wax based car wash.

  2. Paper off all areas you don't want sprayed.

  3. Sand vehicle. I used 80 grit.

  4. Wash car again.

  5. Spray areas that broke through with #8 primer.

  6. Spray vehicle. Do a good tac coat first. I waited a good 30min to an hour between coats. I sprayed in a straight horizontal formation. If you change your mind half way through and start to go up and down you'll see cross streaks. Keep it consistent.

    This is in a nutshell what I did. Seemed to work out for me. I would have loved to have been more detailed but I'm doing this all from my phone on vacation.
