We have both trucks sprayed at the fire hall. One is a Rhino-liner and the other is Line-X. The Rhino-liner, after 2 years of service, is chipping and fading. The Line-X is defiantly holding up better. Seems to me Line-X is more durable to heavy impact and has a better bonding agent in it. I have a bed liner in my truck that was sprayed by a local company. It’s a polycarbonate-based liner, similar to Line-X, and I have never had a problem with it. Personally, they are different. They might have the same protection, but different texture, the way it’s sprayed on, and mixture that is used, or “chemical make-up.” That is why I am in a fight with the insurance adjuster. I don’t know about you guys, but half Line-X half Rhino-liner bed would not look good.

well like I said... pigment and application.... the products are all the same they are applied differently and the "UV" protection is just more pigments

line-x is junk! I have that crap in my bed and all it does is rip and comes up and I am allways taking it back for respray. If you want a good bed linner go with reflex.

I think it would be easier to scuff the bed yourself, go buy that spray can stuff, and just keep repairing parts of your bed that take a beating......probably save you a crap load of money too.

I have had speedliner in all three of my trucks and I have no idea what its make-up is. All I know is that logging chains and beers cans don't hurt it and nether does diesel fuel or two stroke oil. Only thing that does hurt any of these liners is A. sh!ty application or B. drunkin mountain pie making on the tail gate... it melts.
