Default Re: Rhino-Liner vs. Speedliner opinions (No Line-x)

Thank you for the information. However, I stand by my statement. Speedliner can be applied using a brush, roller, or hopper gun. If you look at Speedliner's website, under product, Speedliner 1000 (the common bedliner product), it states, and I quote "Can be brushed, rolled or sprayed." It is more common to apply Speedliner via a hopper gun with either a 4mm, 6mm, or 8mm tip (6mm being the most common). Also, the pressure typically used is 90-100 psi, which I would say, is low pressure as far as bedliner applications go.

In March of 2006, Rhino changed their atomizing wand used with their low pressure Tuff Stuff in order to achieve a nicer texture. I suppose it didn't work since they have ditched low pressure and now have high pressure products.

According to Frost & Sullivan, in 2007 (2008 report has not been released), LINE-X captured 38.7% of the bedliner revenues, Rhino came in second at 34.6%, and all the other bedliner brands combined make up the remaining 26.7%. Obviously, Speedliner is in that 26.7% somewhere.

Good luck this year to you also!
