Its flat fan high atomization nozzle ensures excellent coverage, while the anti-corrosive barrier prevents rust, allowing direct topcoating without sanding. Ideal for prepping surfaces before RAPTOR bedliner application, it delivers lasting protection and professional results.

The raptor finish was great and still lasting, I am confident the primer is great as the liner is still adhered. I repainted some running boards that I did not strip the factory paint off of.

I used this to prep for the spray 2-part bedliner, worked as it should. Its been almost a year, everything is still holding up. Follow the instructions, and you're good to go.

The 2K bed liner spray is awesome. It's messy, so follow the instructions and wear protective gear, but the spray looks nice. Time will tell on wear-ability, but initially, I'm very happy with the DIY results on my steel bumpers, rock rails, and roof rack. I like the idea of the two component hardener that Raptor incorporates into the can. I used the Raptor acid etch primer prior to the bedliner. I also did the undercarriage using the Raptor undercarriage product as well. I think I'm a Raptor fan until proven otherwise. So far, so good.

Coverage was great after 2 light coats which increase durability overall. The color is scratch resistant and the Raptor gray match quality to the Stingray works well. Raptor dries quickly and was ready to install the next day. Long term durability is pretty impressive and scratches aren't to noticeable. Great product 👍
