OEM Spray in Bedliner

[Eatonpcat]

Anyone with the factory sprayed bedliner have this happening and can I prevent it from getting worse?

Nope on my '21.
Looks like a rust bubble coming in from underneath.

Mine is a 2020...Not sure how water gets under the liner material

Looks like the rust is coming from the edges of the drain hole. Ironic. I’d chip out the bubble, grind or wire brush out the rust, repair the spot, and seal the edges of the drain hole with something.

I would removed the bed liner in that area - scoring it with a box cutter may allow you to peel the bed liner up. Repair/sand the rust then have a shop shoot new bed line in that area/

If it’s not under warranty then I second this approach except I would just rattle can bedliner the patch area and hit it with white paint because I’m cheap diy and it’s just the corner of the truck bed

Probably what I will do, thanks for the response...Most likely take @Rockcrawlindude's technique of rattle can for the repair and keep an eye on, touych up again when it needs it.

Thanks for the ideas!

I agee that the moisture is coming in from the edge of the hole. Once you make the repair, insert a rubber plug coated with sealant to prevent further water entry.

You can access behind that area of the bed I would check the backside too.

Often the dealers do or outsource the bedliner. Take it back to them.
I had a trusted shop do mine with lifetime warranty. Just sayin.

If it's the factory bed liner, then it's actually done in Mexico, where they are built. Then send it out to a local shop to do the bedliner.

I agree with Rockcrawlin. Easiest way to repair it. Might want to put some pore 15 on the bare metal first.
