Spray in bed liners

**turnipgreen** · 03-03-2003, 09:31 AM

Anyone have experience with spray in bed liners for trucks? If so, any opinions on which is best (LineX vs Rhino vs ?)?

I have a grey Line-X in my Silver `99 Dakota that has held up very well. (Hey, isn`t this the wrong forum for us to be talking in?)

Same here. I have a Line Ex. No worries at all. no scratches, no chips. warranteed for ever. One of the best purchases I`ve ever made!

I had Line-X put in my `02 Tundra in December. It is one of the best investments I could have made for my truck. I just finished moving and I never had any worries about anything in the bed.:xyxthumbs

Another Line-X guy here. I`d do it again in a heartbeat.:xyxthumbs

IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve had slide-in and spray-on liners and I much prefer the spray-on.

The main difference in the spray-on liners and the slide-in liners is the Ã¢â‚¬Å“slipperinessÃ¢â‚¬ of the liner. If you want or need things to slide on the liner, say a refrigerator, the slide-in is the way to go. If you want to put stuff in the back and have it stay where you put it, or at least reduce the sliding, the spray-on are the way to go.

IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve beat the Line-X hard. IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve carried gravel, rocks, and just plain old dirt. I havenÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t torn or scrapped out the liner, and believe me, IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve tried, and the one dent I put in the bed with a big rock is really hard to see.

The only thing IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m not real thrilled with is the liner has faded. However, I can live with that for the utility it gives me.

I hate to admit it, but I 303 my liner and it looks great!

I dilute it about 2 parts water to 1 part 303 and use a spray bottle. I have also tried Black Again on it and it shined right up (I had some left over on my rag one time and just wiped it along the bed rail, it stayed shiny for almost a month).

I had a Rhino in my previous truck and liked it a lot. In my current truck, I have a bedrug and I like it even more. You might want to check it out.

I have Line-X and have hauled everything from busted up concrete to topsoil, mulch, motorcycles, you name it(exept fertilizer) and it still looks good as new.

I think Line-X is also used by the military. I know for a fact that their test proceedures are rigorous!

I had a RhinoLiner in a Ford Ranger with step-sides. It was great! Nothing slid around in the bed, and it never faded or scratched. It also saved on space compared to plastic inserts...

I`m using my Dad`s Silverado while we move into the house. I planned on doing a complete workup to it (Medaillion PPC, SMR, VM, Moose Wax) as a note of thanks. I never thought about doing something like that to the liner. I don`t have any 303, but I bet I can figure out something between Vinylex and Clearkote.

Thanks for the idea!

No personal experience with Line-X, but I can cast a vote of confidence for Rhinoliner. I have a friend who works in vehicle maintenance for the local sewer district, and they use it in all of their vehicles. It holds up unbelievably well - if they can`t hurt it, I don`t think anybody can!!
