    I painted my 4runner in bedliner last year. I did it completely wrong and it's peeling and water is getting under it. I've decided to just remove the bedliner and restore the factory paint. The clear coat is not harmed just needs some buffing from what I can see. I'm thinking that power washing it off will be the best option. Has anyone else done it or have any tips? Thank you!

    What product did you use to bedline it? There's a couple chemical products that work to remove bedliner but are expensive. A true spray on bedliner is very hard to remove, even a roll on bedliner that's done right is hard to get off. I have a Toyota pickup that I rolled the rocker panels on and it has held up very well. My first gen is completely sprayed and I think a sharp chisel and a hammer is about the only way to get it off.
