Hard Fiberglass Painted Tonneaus Designed To Last

We have been selling painted tonneaus for several years now. Our custom painted tonneau covers are sold in the United States, Canada, Mexico and many markets where the weather can be both extremely cold and hot. Because of our patented painted fiberglass tonneau design, UnderCover painted tonneaus are capable of handling these temperatures without any warp or damage. In fact, UnderCover painted tonneau covers are one of the most widely distributed painted tonneau covers in the wholesale industry. This can only be true when the quality and workmanship satisfy the customer base and returns related to extreme temperatures are not a factor.

UnderCover painted tonneau covers are made from a very selected composite of ABS plastics and polymers. Unlike other plastic aftermarket truck accessories, UnderCover painted tonneaus are constructed to prevent warping from direct sunlight. At an average of 58lbs, UnderCover painted tonneaus are also among the lightest factory color painted tonneau covers on the market.

Advantages of UnderCover Painted Tonneau Covers

There are two features that make UnderCover hard shell painted tonneau covers far superior to traditional, painted tonneaus. First, our painted tonneaus are light-weight, which makes them very easy to remove and install. By using no-drill hardware, putting the painted tonneau cover on and off is a breeze. Second, each painted tonneau cover comes with wall mount hardware. Once you do take the factory painted tonneau off, you can easily store it by hanging the painted tonneau in your garage. This is a feature that no fiberglass fiberglass tonneau can offer.

All composite materials expand and contract as a result of temperature changes. However, UnderCover painted fiberglass tonneau covers have been designed to keep this almost unnoticeable. In addition to offering uncanning convenience and lasting value, UnderCover painted tonneaus offer many advantages:

• Each painted tonneau cover is backed by warranty support
• Our OEM Color Painted tonneaus do not require any special care or maintenance
• Even with a bed liner, installing a painted tonneau cover is very simple and should not take more than 30-40 minutes
• Owners often realize improved gas mileage with our gloss painted tonneau covers
• All painted tonneau covers are watertight to insure cargo protection from outside elements
• Weighing in at only 58 lbs, Undercover painted tonneau covers are the lightest painted fiberglass tonneaus in the industry
• Taking the painted tonneau off and on takes as little as 1-2 minutes
• Our painted tonneau covers are designed to hold up to extreme climates
• Most of our hard shell painted tonneaus are capable of adding custom truck accessories
• Our ABS composite material and advanced technology ensure painted tonneau customers get the highest level of quality and the best fitting hard cover painted tonneau available

Painted Tonneau Covers Help Improve Gas Mileage

Many truck owners want the seamless look of a painted tonneau cover, not only to enhance their truck's look and utility, but also to improve gas mileage. By adding a painted tonneau cover to a truck bed, the surface area that air must pass across while traveling down the road is greatly reduced. How much the painted tonneau improves gas mileage varies per application. At Undercover, we have seen tests that report painted tonneau covers improving gas mileage anywhere from 4% to 12%.

Locking Painted Tonneaus Keep Cargo Secure

The safety and security of the cargo area is always a concern of pickup truck owners. A hard, locking painted tonneau cover is the ideal solution to insure that your cargo is protected from the elements. The locking mechanism on Undercover painted tonneaus is comprised of a wrap over tailgate design, which locks the tailgate whenever the fiberglass tonneau cover is down and locked. Our locking painted tonneaus are stainless steel and require no adjustments or maintenance other that periodic lubrication. Undercover painted tonneau covers do not include cables or rotary latches that require frequent adjustments. This assures reliable functionality for our painted tonneau covers in even the most rigorous situations.

Each truck bed is laser scanned with the dimensions downloaded to our 3-D CAD software. Our in-house engineers are then able to develop a painted tonneau cover that offers the perfect color and fit on nearly all make and model pick up trucks.

Painted Tonneau - FAQs

Learn more about Undercover painted tonneau covers by reading some of the common FAQs we receive from prospective customers.

How easy is it to take the painted tonneau cover off?
It takes approximately 1-2 minutes to take the painted tonneau off and to store it with wall-mount hardware (included). It is a 2-step process: first release the 2 struts and snap the loose end into the clips attached to the inside of the painted tonneau cover; loosen the twist knobs on the front hinge of the painted tonneau, and simply lift the painted tonneau off and hang it on the wall.

Is it difficult to install a painted tonneau?
The painted tonneau installation process is very easy. All painted tonneau cover brackets (4 on most painted tonneau applications) clamp on with no drilling required. The next step is setting the painted tonneau on the truck and making any necessary adjustments. The whole process of installing painted tonneau covers only takes about 15-20 minutes.

Are all of your tonneau covers paintable?
Yes, all of our hard shell painted tonneau covers are custom paint able, but you are probably looking for our SE Smooth cover if you want a hard-shell painted tonneau cover. Go to www.undercoversesmooth.com for more details on our SE Smooth tonneau and fiberglass painted tonneau covers.

How do I pick up my new painted tonneau cover?
We have painted tonneau dealers across the U.S. and internationally. If you purchase an SE Smooth fiberglass tonneau cover from them, they will take care of the paint process for you. If you purchase the fiberglass tonneau cover from an online tonneau dealer, take the tonneau cover to the auto body paint shop of your choice and have the cover painted to match the color of your truck. Painting instructions are in the box and can be found at www.undercoversesmooth.com/paint_rec.php. Contact our customer service team if you need help locating a local shop.

Can I drive the truck with the painted tonneau in the raised position?
No, the painted tonneau needs to be removed and stored properly before hauling a load taller than the bed rail.

How is the painted tonneau attached to my truck?
All painted tonneau covers have been designed to be totally non-intrusive to the truck. No holes to drill. The entire painted tonneau installation is a breeze and requires only 1/2 inch & 3/8 inch socket or open end wrenches.

Can I add other truck accessories (i.e. spoiler, bike rack, rail bars, etc. ) to an Undercover painted tonneau?
Yes, however, any additions/modifications will void the painted tonneau warranty. If you do decide to add aftermarket truck accessories to the painted tonneau cover call our factory for advice as to where to drill and what size holes will be required for specific fasteners.

Does the Undercover painted tonneau cover fit better than other types of hard tonneaus?
Yes, we use the most technically advanced software, machines, and equipment in the industry to provide you with a hard shell painted tonneau cover that fits precisely to your truck bed. The team at Undercover spent countless hours creating a painted tonneau that not only fits the truck perfectly, but also matches the look of the newer model pickup trucks and remains low profile.
