Everything You Want to Know About Turbo Liner® — Clearly Explained

Are you considering a Turbo Liner® treatment for your vehicle but still have a few practical questions? We understand. Applying a durable coating isn’t an everyday decision — you want to be fully informed before moving forward. That’s why we’ve gathered and answered the most frequently asked questions on this page.

Whether you're curious about the application process, drying time, warranty, or the types of surfaces we work on — our FAQ section provides clear, straightforward answers to the things that matter most. We believe in clarity and transparency, long before any commitment is made.

Turbo Liner® is a high-quality polyurea coating that forms a tough, waterproof, and wear-resistant layer in a single application. It's ideal for vehicles that face heavy use, such as pickups, commercial vans, trailers, or custom builds. But how is it applied? Is it suitable for your specific cargo area? And how long does it actually last?

We answer all of these questions and more, so you can make an informed decision with confidence. Whether you're a private vehicle owner or an industry professional, you deserve a solution that matches your expectations and usage.

Can I also apply Turbo Liner myself?

No, unfortunately not. Unless you have the right 2-component spray equipment (machine, pumps, mixers, hoses, and gun), a spray booth with approved extraction, and the proper protective equipment, processing a hotspray product like TurboLiner® cannot be done by yourself. 

How long will I be without my car for a Turbo Liner treatment?

For a pick-up, you often lose the car for a morning (from around 8 AM to 12 PM). For vans, it takes several days. A LOW treatment can often be completed in 3 days, and for other treatments, you should think of 4 or 5 days.

Is it possible to incorporate a water drain into a Turbo Liner treatment?

If you work a lot with water in the cargo area of your van, it is indeed wise to have a water drain. We then drill a hole through the floor plate and the body of the chassis, install a small pipe, and ensure everything is carefully watertight. After applying the plastic coating, you have an excellent water drain. The additional cost for such a drain is 75 euros. (Note! We do not do this for electric cars because there is too much electronics underneath the car).

Is a Turbo Liner cargo area treatment also airtight?

We always try to make a loading space as watertight as possible, which means sealing as many holes, seams, and gaps as possible before we start coating. However, one bodywork is not the same as another. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that we can make a loading space 100% watertight. This is also not necessary (it's not an aquarium). The same applies to airtightness. If you are transporting products for which you do not want the air in the cabin, we can always try to make the loading space extra airtight upon request, but it is simply not possible to provide a full guarantee on that.

How do I deal with water at the sliding door of a van?

If you choose a Turbo Liner® treatment because you work with a lot of water in the cargo area, the sliding door is naturally the largest open point where water can reach places you'd rather it didn't. In that case, we can create a water barrier. We then install a raised edge (of about 2 cm) at the sliding door. After applying the plastic coating, a seamless elevation is created that water cannot pass. The additional cost for such a water barrier is 75 euros.

What is the best way to keep the coating clean?

We have developed a special cleaner that is perfect for keeping a plastic coating clean. We sell it in 0.5-liter bottles. The cleaner can be diluted with water depending on the stubbornness of the dirt.

Can I also get the coating in a different color?

For an additional fee, we can apply a topcoat over the plastic coating. We actually only recommend this for parts of the bodywork or when a white cargo area is desired (fishmongers, butchers, etc).
