Fantastic Undercoat/Line-X wheel well shop

[alexhartang]

Just got permanent undercoat and my wheel wells line-x’d on my gen3, and this shop is KILLER for anyone in PA. Delaware Valley Line-X does a crazy good job with premium care to your truck. Out the door just under $1,200 all in. Highly recommend.

Can you possibly upload a picture of this? I plan on getting the bed done but I was curious if that included the sides of the bed also or if that is normally not done. I was also curious if you do the wheel wells is that just on the rear because you can see the truck color from the side view? or do they actually do directly above the wheel?

Mine already has the ford spray in liner, so this was only the inside of the rear wheel wells, as well as undercoating for the underside of the truck. I’ll throw a few pictures up in a few minutes

Stay away from any rubberized or bed liner type undercoating!!!!!! Especially if you live in an area where the roads are heavily salted. In the long run these kinds of coatings in that kind of environment will accelerate the deterioration of your frame. I’ve seen it first hand on several vehicles. Also, there are numerous videos on YouTube and such documenting this. Beware.

Still isn’t completely dried/cured but there’s the areas they coated

Wheel wells, sure. Frame? I have read horror stories.

6 cans of Amsoil HDMP, wire brush, black semi gloss Rustoleum in a rattle can, scouring pads, tack cloth, all under $200 + 1/2 a day of minimal elbow grease under the truck while listening to tunes on a dry day. 3-4 beer job max.

Care to elaborate? I haven’t heard of any issues, what seems to be the problem some people have?

How many have you first hand seen this on, how old were they, where were they driven? I’ve gotten this same type of undercoating on 3 other trucks over the last 15 years, with two of them being while I lived in Maine with heavy salt and winters, with ZERO issues. All three different models by different manufacturers too. The shop I used took great pride in explaining in 20 years they’ve never had a single complaint or issue, and have 153 reviews, all but one of which are 5 stars, with the one being a 4 star review. I’m always hesitant on YouTube information because for every video of someone complaining about a product or process, there are just as many supporting it. My personal experience over almost two decades, with a Chevy 2500, TRD Pro Tundra, F-150, and now my Raptor so far have proven otherwise entirely.

If I’m paying close to $90k OTD for a Raptor, I can justify $1,200 to have a pro with over two decades of experience do it for me, with their guarantee, warranty, and quality skilled workers. I’m also happy to support a small local business that could use every referral possible in this tough period for business owners.
