Default Spray on bed liners.....

Looking at getting the F-250 (and possibly the TJ) the "Line-X" treatment.

Have any of you had any experience with spray on liners?

Is there a preferred brand?

What are the common pitfalls?

Thanks,
Cecil

pitfalls: do it ur self spray and roll on kits, anything roll on sucks. I have done spray in on about 4 trucks myself "gator Guard" is what i use, if ur gonna load it up and drop things and have stuff slide around then I suggest Line-X by far.

I use the gator guard for trucks that dont get much use back there my s-10 which is tubbed and has a notch cover for my air suspension. And a few others, my step bros Titan which he is always throwing stuff in is pretty messed up.

Plus Line-x is also being tested/used as a a blast containment coating for buildings/walls. I seen on the news where they coated a cement block inside and out cinder(sp) block and droped it from atleast 30 feet up and it didnt break, with a simple application of line-X

Hope this helps- Mike

Line-X is great, they have a empty can thats coated with it and they ask you to crush it. but it is a lil bit expensive.. a buddy of mine had his 6ft bed on his silverado cost $6xx ....

Line-X of Bradenton has a arrangement with Suncaost Flatlanders (Jeep Club).
They told me between $450 for nthe SD, and $550 - $850 on the TJ, depending on what all you want done (roll-bar, fender wells, etc.).

Line-X of Brandon gave me a price of $800 for the TJ abd $500 for the SD.

Line-X really is better than the others, especially the do-it-yourself stuff. I work for a company engineering travel cases, we do some line-x covered stuff. A 3ft cube trunk costs us $150 to get done, its pricy, but if you want it to look good, its worth it.
