roll on bedliner

[bohn333]

whats everybodys opinion on roll on bedliners? Anybody ever do one?

I think they look 500x better then the slid in ones. I have never done one.

guy at work has it on his truck, i think it\'s awsome, his is really thick, i would do it to my truck, if i cared about the looks.

[jasonski18]

yes ive done one, to my 91 s10. there good to make it look bettr or if you have dents and scrathes but i forgot what brand it was but it didnt take that long and i used a 5\" roller and a foam brush to get in little areas, it turned out good! that was just to give it that \"clean look\" cuz then i put a tonnuea cover on it ......ahh well any other questions on it feel free to ask http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif

to add i work at CPV custom painted vehicles and those rhino liners that we spray on ar about 3/16\'s - 1/4\" thick! but that will run you about 300-400 bucks but thats the way to go if you got that kind of cash!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

a friend of mine has it on his truck, he loves it.. and it works great... only thing is that stuff doesnt slide very well on it... er.. at all. but if you dont care about that.. go for it! he loves it other than that..

I\'m about to do that to my truck soon. I have a friend with it done to his Dodge. I think it\'s totally worth it. A painted bed is a nasty mess waiting to happen if you use your bed for anything. I have some small dents and stuff that the roll on liner should go right over and look great. Eventually when I get my nice sealed fiberglass tonneau I will be carpeting my bed, but roll on liner will work perfect for now.

yeah the rhino liner stuff is awsome.

I have it on my truck. Since my truck is an off road beast we sprayed it on the lower part of the truck. It works great to protect the truck from litle dings and scratches, also when i shine my truck up it looks nice.

what ever u do not spill gas or any cemicals on those roll on bed liners it eats right through it. U can acually pick up a spray on kit from your local auto body supply store that can be customed colored with automotive paint for $150 to $200 and they last much longer than the cheep roll on tipes

[BadBowtie]

I have stuff called rhino liner. its was like $40 each kits and we used 2 kits tospray the bottom of my truck and the bottom of my fathers 86 3/4 and his bed. it could be brushed on or rolled on. but we used the spary on method and it came out very nice.

Definetly get it professionally sprayed. The roll-on liners look like crap IMO. I have a Line-X and they are by far the best looking and most durable liner available.

[jasonski18]

hey man not to be a jerk or anything but those line x liners arnt all what they are hopped up to be, if you take a piece of sprayed on rhino and sprayed on line x and put both in a bucket of water the line x would float and rhino would sink, thats because when they spray the line x they spray that at too high of a pressure, line x is full of air unlike the rhino, we\'ve gotten vehicles in at work and we have a measuring device to measure the thickness of the line x and we found that its like 1/16\'\' thick in areas, the line x isnt nearly as dense as the rhino professionally sprayed on, up to a 1/4 think and never ever will come off! http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_frown.gif

Well, i\'ve had mine 2 years and haven\'t had any problems at all. BTW, the thickess is up to the discretion of the person spraying it. I requested 1/8\". 1/4\" is too thick and heavy.

ON my 97 I got a kit off of a guy sellin them on ebay. I think it was like 100. It was called Rattle Gaurd, or something like that. You spray it in. All you need is a bucket, and a compressor. It is a 6(?) part liquid, you mix it together and spray it on. Works great!!!!

I just purchased a Road Warrior roll on kit off of e-bay. It was $45 with shipping. From what i have found so far it is a good kit, so i\'ll find out when i get it.
