Has anyone had good luck with spray on truck bed liner material on the handles of their work knife? I was thinking it might add grip if applied to to the handle of something like a sodbuster pattern.

Anyone try it out before?
 
Too easy.

Raptor Liner.

Best product for DIY Spray.

Done it on Jeeps, Rims, Bumpers, and eventually my truck.

We did a wooden hammer handle it's still holding up 100%

Comes in black, or a tint able kit.
It WILL DESTROY YOUR POCKETS. And for sake on earth DONT buy any roll on product. It ends up goopy smooth and flat.

I do plan on doing the bottom of my Nalgene Eventually. Here us a few pics of the best project I've done so far, bumper caps, rims, body and fenders were all done in 24 hrs.

That hard on pockets? Perhaps it will be good idea for a knife that I keep solely in the garage. Perhaps a fixed blade would be a better candidate. Thanks.
 
Seems a bit high, sounds interesting...
rustoleum has a product for spraying on concrete, Anti-Slip,
to make it not be slippery when wet, about $15 for one can
it may work ok? It is clear i think.
they also have a flexi-dip that is similar to spray liners..

I've used it a bunch of times over JB Weld to custom fit pistol grips, it works well, but I cannot recall what brand I used...
Sprayed it in a bunch of light coats and it gives good texture without being too aggressive.
 
Plasti-dip is a coating similar to truck bed liner that was designed specifically for till handles, they make it on aerosol our an open top tube to literally dip handles in.

It took off with the car modding community and now they sell kits for spraying an entire car, but you should be able to find the original product at most hardware stores still
 
I think the Plasti-dip in the can would be the best. It was designed, I think, to dip tool handles in to give a waterproof, anti-slip grip. After it dries, the grip is slightly soft which will be much easier on your hands than the spray-on bed liner. The bed liner is pretty hard so it would be much harder on your hands. I've been thinking about trying it on a fish filet knife I made.

Plasti-dip is good stuff.

BUT!

If the coating gets scraped, it will peel off.

I painted parts of my dirt bike with it, and it did work (to a point) little scratches start to peel, especially with friction.

Edit: There is a dipable can of it I believe.
 
^ Like any coating, proper prepping the surface makes a huge difference on the quality of the bond, I would definitely make sure the area to be dipped/sprayed is clean from any oils or grease, and roughed with sandpaper or steel wool.
