Duratex over truck bed liner?

Sure, you can cover this cab with Duratex. Plan on applying an extra coat - white is a hard color to cover.

 

I would think just paint it. It already has protection. Why add more weight?

 

Coverage over the white will require more pigment, and every ding will show up white no matter what you do. I would spray it with Krylon semi-gloss black, probably 4 or 5 coats, and plan on lots of touch up. Duratex is hard to touch up without leaving a different texture each time.

 

Get a Star Wars Stormtrooper outfit to go with it. Or a white tuxedo. Or both. You might get some gigs out of it.

 

Maybe a big black bowtie for the cab?

 

Roll it around in the dirt a bit and it will dull closer to the cream you like.

 

Oh. It was white.... Sorry thought it was more of a light gray. White would make me too OCD about scuffs, probably what you're thinking too. Well good luck. Duratex may work, but I agree it might chip off easily without being bonded to the wood.

 

I'd Duratex. It'll take a number of coats, I'd guess a quart would do it. And you'll have some left over.

I like Duratex because it's: super easy, cleans up with water, and most of all doesn't stink. You can do it indoors with no air quality or fume concerns.
The rough texture little roller they sell and a throw away brush is all you'll need.

 

It's obviously subjective, but I dig it!

 

You don't play the paint.

 

If I ordered it that way I'd give it plenty of time to adjust to me before trying to paint it. Or you could always hydro dip it. It would definitely look funky over a textured surface, but it would be different fer sure.

If OTOH I got a white one because it was the best deal I could find in a used one, I'd either let it ride ot shoot it with some of the spray bomb all in one (paint/primer) paints available today. It's already textured and the newer all in one paints are super sticky on most any surface. I'd get some BBQ black and put 3~5 good coats on and call it good. The upside is if you do need touch up it's available most anywhere and it's quick and easy to cover those occasional aw chits moments.

 

You stated you just got this cab from Schroeder. Why not just return it for a color you do like?

 

It's not that bad. Besides, if you face the audience and not the amp, you won't even have to look at it.
Actually, I think it's kind of cool... wouldn't bother me in the least.

 

Stormtrooper! Best idea ever!

At least give thought to idea of dressing the cab up like a Stormtrooper. Or R2D2.

 

Put it in a room full of smokers for about a week. It will turn a nice tan.

 

Send it to me for a few months. I'll fire up my pipe... much richer smoke.
