RubbaKote has brilliant adhesive strength on most surfaces and particularly on painted surfaces such as bakkie bins. This exceptional strength is also the reason for its super tough nature in withstanding wear and tear. It bonds the particles of tyre rubber together to form a non-slip coating that can withstand a hard beating.
Being in this particular product category for over thirty years, we have finally found the most effective means of protecting bakkie bins and other substrates. The reason is due to a new water-based polymer technology that exhibits all the desirable elements for such coatings.
Simply brush on and wash your tools with running water.
It is the most economical coating for this superb quality of product.

You will need 3lt of RubbaKote to cover 1 square metre.
*This is after applying 3 coats of the product - which is a requirement for it to be effective.
As shown in the photos on the left and above it is easy to coat the back of your truck or bakkie with our specialized rubber coating made to last.
The application is simple so long as you follow the basic prep rules beforehand, by cleaning the surface with KleenKote. Once that step is complete you can simply brush it on with a paint brush or if you prefer you can use a UBS Gun to spray on the coating. Our 1lt bottles are the perfect size to screw onto a UBS Gun for your convenience.
Rubbakote is available in black, light grey and light blue.
Bakkie owners prefer black but yacht and ski boat owners want lighter heat-reflecting colours such as light grey or light blue.
This video demo helps to show the substrate preparation and first coat application.
Extremely easy to apply and highly effective in its functionality.

RubbaKote can be sanded between coats to form a more even finish. This is desirable for such items a gun grips or tool handles where you intend to have a non-slip coating without the aggressive finish which is better on a bakkie bin.
On a hot day you can add coats one hour apart but do not put to use until 24 hours drying time.
It is best to have RubbaKote cure fully before dragging wheelbarrows across its surface. Full cure takes about 5 to 7 days but normal light duty foot traffic is fine after 24 hours.
It all comes together on this third coat as we see in this video.
We suggest a fourth coat for builders and other hard wearing industries who punish their bakkies mercilessly.
The picture below is of the tin plate we used in this demo.
Remember, RubbaKote can be used in a myriad of applications, whether for large sports arena's to small gun grips. Skateboarders love it, fishermen love it and it works perfectly on stairs, or step ladder steps as well as shower floors. It porvides a seamless floor that can be hosed down or scrubbed endlessly.
A local contractor was given a job to apply a rubberizing coating over a tailgate for a bakkie... and of course you can see just how perfectly he cleaned the surface and applied the product to produce a stunning look as well as something that will last for years.
As you can see, after a few coats of our specialised rubber lining the bakkie tailgate looks fantastic!
This highly durable product will protect anything you throw into the back of your truck, just like any high quality product should.
The first phase was to ensure the surface was cleaned off completely of grease, oils and the white paint by using our degreaser, KleenKote. Grinding down the white to a point where the surface will not cause a problem with adhesion of the rubber lining.
On the right you can see the first layer of the rubber coating. It may not look like much but once you scroll down a little you will see something truly magical.
