Anyone ever had OEM hard top coated?

[ColeTrain84]

Curious if anyone has ever had their OEM hard top coated like a thin bed liner? I hate the grey MIC top and i am curious if coating it will slow down the known cracking issues or at least mask them.

Whatever you do, DONT WAX IT

I've toyed with the idea of dipping my MIC top.

I dipped my pinch welds & lower sills with great results, held up extremely well against the sand & rocks that have gotten kicked up over 18k miles.

OP: Do a search on "Raptor Liner on MIC Top". and you will see how I did mine. It still looks great and I have not seen any cracks in it yet. Not saying that the liner stops cracks, just that I have not seen any. Hope this helps.

I’m also debating doing mine. I don’t see the downside…as of yet.

I gotta think of you did get cracking they wouldn’t warranty it?

Well, if they use the wax detector, many of us are screwed

Will a coating or bedliner help hold the whole top together and either prevent cracks or prevent them from being seen.......yes! Will it void your warranty for the top.....yes! So best bet is to wait until out of warranty and you can no longer return your cracked top for a new one for free via warranty.

I did a candy coating. Lick it every time I go out. Figure if I get stuck in the wildeeness at least I'd survive for a little while. Unless it rains.

Someone did theirs in a Line-X I believe. I will see if I can dig up that thread.
