Blemish on Bed Rug

[quietpeen]

Has anybody experienced anything like this?

ok, so the real question is has anybody had a can of paint leak onto their bedrug?

Look like you spilled some paint lol can't you pressure wash it off

 

[bigbadram1500]

ouch. Is it oil based or water based? Prolly best to get cleaning on it before it dries.

 

[blackout11]

Ya man put something on that then pressure wash that

 

[quietpeen]

i don't know what kind of paint it was. Unfortunately i do not have a pressure washer. I scrubbed it and dumped a lot of paint thinner on it. I will be going to my parents house tomorrow and my dad has a pressure washer so i will hit it real good with that tomorrow

 

[bigbadram1500]

is that pic before or after the paint thinner?

Ouch, if I had a bed rug, I would have bagged up each paint can. My ocd would be like damn your going to end up spilling paint.

Just sayin.

it was in a plastic bag with insulation and some sheet rock. Well the sheet rock poked a hole in the bag. I'm real lucky because when i rolled the bag over there was a puddle of paint in the bag. There could have been a lot more on the bed rug.

Maybe you could try to remove as much as possible, without damaging it anymore.

And use a fabric dye in an are-sol can. It would look much nicer then.

i will see what it looks like after i hit it with the pressure washer tomorrow....It doesn't look too bad right now. After the pressure washer i have some real strong cleaner I can use, but that is more a last resort....LOL

Better the bed rug than on the bed itself.

 

[quietpeen]

why didn't you run down to the local pay n spray man?

 

[quietpeen]

why didn't you run down to the local pay n spray man?

because I wanted to soak as much up with paper towels and use the paint thinner on it. didn't want to spay the paint onto the tailgate or bumper

 

[wermbang]

Ouch good luck with the cleaning

 

[bigbadram1500]

I'm thinking it will come out since the bedrug is pretty resistant to things that would normally ruin surfaces. Even if it doesn't immediately come out, I bet it will wear off.

 

[quietpeen]

i'm thinking it will come out too....especially with how much paint thinner is still in there...LOL

 

[bigbadram1500]

Lol yeah that is true. I even read that it's resistant to bleach. I didn't know that before.
