I've been researching for my upcoming budget paint job on my new to me m1008 offroad project and i have noticed alot of people have used behr with good results, well what about monstaliner? I was browsing their website and noticed they have code 34088 tint available. Wouldn't tinted monstaliner be tougher than behr or maybe even carc? Just curious what yall think of this.

Sorry for the confusion if you read this before I edited the post.
Had to re-edit, I guess I really didn't get that you wanted to use the Monster-liner on the exterior and not as a bedliner.

You can, I have seen a few trucks, not MV's, around town that have had it done. They don't look bad, but it depends on what you are trying to achieve.
I used a light bedliner material on the lower portion of my M1009 as a scratch protector from rocks and stuff.

If you don't mind a rough outer exterior, then there is nothing wrong. Just keep in mind not to use it where rubber seals meet the body surface, they need that smooth and/or flat surface to seal properly to keep water leaks from occurring.

I read the Monster-liner product page, it is a catalyst based coating, so the hardness factor should be good for your off-road activities.

Hope that helps and good luck
