Just wanted to provide an update from my first round of bedlining my gutters in 2015 (posts are still posted a few pages back in this thread). I got about 6 years out of the first attempt (they really needed to be done about a year ago). The bedlining started to crack and flake off, along with some additional paint peel. But this really only happened on the passenger side, the driver side had started to crack a bit but not peel off. Honestly I'm not even sure I did enough prep work the first time and probably didn't put enough coats on (by brush) and still got about 6 years out of it. And that is staying outside 24/7, not in a garage. Pretty satisfied with that.
I just recoated them this week again. Brushing on again and putting on 2 coats. I'm a little concerned about where there's new paint flake along the inner side of the gutter, but I'm just putting it on thick in those spots. Additionally, while I taped off the gutter when I did the driver's side, I just went freehand on the pass side. My line's not even, but no one can see it unless you are above it looking down, so I didn't care, plus it saved a ton of time not having to tape it off. Appreciate all the tips and guidance you all provided over the years on this issue. Some great info on this forum.
