focijoe Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I am considering a spray in bedliner for my 09 Silverado 2500HD. I have a choice between Rhino Liner and Line-x. I have used the search but I really want to know what you guys haul in your bed and how they hold up. I will be hauling firewood, plywood, concrete block, and old wood and plaster from demo on my house on a regular basis. Will it hold up???? I don't want to have to worry every time i throw something in my bed that it will screw up my liner. Also how are the warranties? If I would damage the liner is it covered? Have you ever damaged yours?
jro909 Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 i believe both are lifetime warrantys that cover any damage to the liner
MacA Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 i believe both are lifetime warrantys that cover any damage to the liner +1...this is my second Chevy truck with the Line-X and it has handled everything I have thrown at it. Excellent product!!
RyanbabZ71 Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Either will hold up well. Had a Rhino in my 2000 and went with Line-X (mainly because their shop was close and I wanted to try something different) in my 2010.
C. Charles Hahn Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I love my Line-X. I've hauled everything from lumber, to concrete blocks, and even dragged a 600# air compressor across it and it still looks just like it did when it was new (save for a bit of dirt I need to clean up in the spring). I'd highly recommend it.
wurgs Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I had linex and rhinoliner both and for your type of hauling i"d go with the linex brand. Rhinoliner has a rougher more rubbery feel to it which keeps things from sliding around much and Linex is a slightly smoother harder finish which should help you with unloading construction items. I never had a problem with either liner with rips or peeling away so whichever you choose should be fine.
Black02Silverado Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I have Speedliner in mine. I like it. I haul everything. Gravel, dirt, mulch. It is holding up well considering the abuse I give it. You just can't beat a spray in bedliner!!!
CasualButJiggy Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I had Rhino in my 04 F350 and beat the hell out of it. Rocks, blocks, lumber, construction debris, you name it, and it took all the abuse I could throw at it. I would certainly get it again. I don't think you can go wrong with Linex or Rhino.
jwhjr Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Line-X in my 04 since new and have had firewood/concrete/rocks/sand/dirt and more in it and it has held up.
Nytemare Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 This should help Bomb proof I think we should paint every vehicle in Afghanistan and Iraq with this stuff.............Help protect all the guys and gals over there from roadside bombs more.
SparkySparks Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I don't know what brand my liner is but the liner they used when I bought my truck was a low pressure spray in liner and it was more of a rubbery deal, helped a buddy move and he slid a heave dresser across it and it scratched it to the paint in a couple of places. The dealership had it redone and this time its like really had and thick plastic. Hauled all of my stuff when I moved and it had what looked like scratches again but not as deep. When I looked closer the scratch was actually more like saw dust, guess the new liner fought back.
J-man67 Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I have Line-ex and love it. I keep about 10 pavers, two jacks, tools, and some misc stuff in my bed daily. It never moves and the liner still looks new. I kinda tested it last week and dropped a few of those pavers in and nothing happened.
tflessner Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I have Speedliner in mine. I like it. I haul everything. Gravel, dirt, mulch. It is holding up well considering the abuse I give it. You just can't beat a spray in bedliner!!! I've got the Speedliner in mine also. It was less expensive, and is very durable. It's a little harder than Rhino and a little softer than Line-X. And, it's still looks great after 3 years, no fading, etc. I've hauled everything from rocks/gravel, hay bales, auto parts, four wheelers, etc. and it's held up great. I will always get the spray in bedliner for all my pickups.
d3athsong Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 My line-x has held up nice. Hauled oil, chemical, rock, steel, parts, bin sweeps, fans, all kinds of things. And with the exception of some caulking that was on a fan that doesnt seem to want to come off, it still looks great. Ive had 3 85lbs suitcase weights on the back all winter not tied down and they hadn't moved at all until the other day when i had to get on my brakes hard, so it grips pretty good too..
