Speedliner---Line-X---Rhino

Looking for opinions (pros and cons) on these 3 companies. Would like to know what you have and what you paid for the installation? Any information from people in NJ would be a big help. Thanks LARRY

I got a Line X for 425 and used a $25 coupon from their website! I love it with no gripes at all! If I had to do it over I'd do it quicker than the three weeks it took me from the day I bought my truck! Good luck!

I had Line-X spray the bed of my new DC three weeks ago. Cost was $415 minus a $20 coupon from their website $395 + tax. I liked the fact they took out all hardware and bed bolts before spraying. Looks great, and seems like it will stand up to a lot of damage. I also ordered my snuglid SL and Westin step bars from the same line-x dealer and negotiated a substantial discount.

My Rhino came to 390 including tax. Best thing I ever did to the truck (so far), and the next truck will get sprayed too. Oh yeah I got a free set of Rhino pens when I got mine! WooHoo!

I did Line-X. Very nice and no regrets. Only took them about 3 hrs from the time i dropped it off to pick up.

It was $374 after coupon i downloaded off the companys website.

I highly recommend it.

I Have Had My Speedliner For About Three Months And Very Pleased With The Results

I had my 2002 Access Cab Line-X'd 2 years ago. Held up well. Sold my AC recently. Bought 2004 DC this past week and had it Line-X'd immediately. Dealer suggested speedliner but I opted for Line-X. I am having an A.R.E. SLII Tonneau lid installed this week so it probably doesn't matter what bedliner I have. It probably boils down to personal preference any way.

The Rhino guy advised against it...said getting the match you want is almost impossible and it will dull and change shades as it gets older.

Don't know about Line-X

Why did you choose speedliner and have you seen a line-x to compare how yours looks to it? What kind of warranty did you get?

David Combs--- Did your dealer say why they recommended speedliner? I have a speedliner dealer closer to me than line-x but haven't heard a whole lot about them so I'm trying to find out if they compare to line-x. It doesn't have so much to do with money (because they can't be that far apart) as much as quality.

I think the dealer, who also owns a body shop, provides the speedliner service in-house. I'd take a good look AT ALL 3 AND THEN MAKE YOUR CHOICE.

wouldnt black dull even more than colo though?

Here are some facts:

Speedliner: Shore A (92), tensile strength is 4,700 psi. From their website, it looks like it has a slow cure time. One BIG question, what is it? Their website doesn't say. Is it a polyurethane (like Rhino and LINE-X) or is it a paint, or what?

Rhino: Shore A (90-95), tensile is 2,700-2,900 psi. Application is cold/low pressure (thus, can't contain polyurea), gels in minutes, drys in about an hour, cures in 24 hours.

LINE-X: Shore D (45), tensile is up to 6,600 psi. Application is high heat/high pressure (and contains polyurea), drys in 4 seconds, cures in 24 hours.

Notes: Shore rating is a national standard rating. The range is 1 to 100, soft to hard. Shore A is for rubbers, Shore D is for plastics. So, Shore D's are harder than Shore A's. Polyurea keeps moisture out of the product which allows for better adhesion. It also produces a harder liner as opposed to a softer liner. The faster the drying time, the more even of an application instead of gravity pulling the product down from the high ridges into the low valleys before it can dry.
