bedliner

Cargo area coating

A bedliner is a protective coating or insert for a pickup truck bed, shielding it from scratches, dents, and corrosion caused by hauling cargo.

Bedliners come as spray-on coatings or drop-in plastic shells: I had a bedliner sprayed on before loading gravel.

The term is sometimes spelled as two words.
