BlownL67 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 In the next few weeks I'd like to get a spray in liner for the truck. A couple shops want to charge upwards of $175-@250"]$175-$250 extra for the Xtra option on top of the $450-$500 price of the Line-X. Is this treatment really worth it or what ? One of the shops told me it was an absolute waste and just get the regular Line-X treatment. I want some opinions from you guys! Whatcha think ?
VMax2007 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Are you going to have a tonneau cover or topper on it? If so, don't waste your money, the std Line-X will be fine. It still looks like brand new in my old 2000 GMC after 8-1/2 years. It has a tonneau cover though (my brother now owns it).

Hmmmm?
J-man67 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 What is this Xtra you are talking of? I just had my Line-X done at the dealer before I picked it up. I use my bed quite a bit so I dont have or want a tonneau cover. Fill me in please!!

rzauner Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 I spent the extra $$ because I live in AZ. Suppose to help from fading. richz
sonjaab Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Don't waste your money.......Spray ins suck !
slimjim2525 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Don't waste your money.......Spray ins suck !Absolutely false statement. Get the regular line-x, and forget this x-tra stuff. I just had a line-x done 1 month ago, and they did not offer me any additional service like that, but I would have refused anyway. It looks to me as just another way to pad the bill. But I could care less what the bed looks like, you're supposed to use the bed, right?
J-man67 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Don't waste your money.......Spray ins suck ! HAHA, your joking right?
ws6_guy Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Don't waste your money.......Spray ins suck ! HAHA, your joking right? has to be joking. I've hauled loads of wood, & rocks with my spray in rhino liner & not even a scratch. You can never beat a spray in liner. That Xtra thing I think is getting it color matched to the rest of truck & going over rails, doesn't seem worth it to me though, I wouldn't mind the over rails though.
papapump51 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 I have the LineX over rail with the Kevlar - Suppose to keep shine and not fade - and be stonger - IDK I just liked it better so I got it and for almost the same price as a regular one so no worries.
cm5 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 the linex with kevlar (xtra) and color match is about 1000 over the rails. crazy! but yeah i heard line xtra keeps it from fading and more rugged. if ur gonna use ur bed a lot and keep the truck a long time i say go with with linx xtra. if not normal application im sure will be good enuff!
Lincoln30 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 I got the Xtra on mine b/c it makes the liner go from low maint. (protectant 4 times/year) to ZERO maint. to keep it looking good. To me that was worth the "Xtra" $150. If you are on a tight budget or don't plan to keep the truck for more then a couple of years then it's probably not worth it. You also get the option to choose more or less texture with the Xtra which didn't matter to me since I wanted the normal Line-X amount of texture. I do believe the Xtra is worth the money if you are doing a color besides black since it's alot more shiny (like the paint on the truck) then the standard Line-x (I have black).
YZINGERR Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 i have had Line-x for 4 years.. i MTB and Dirtbike regularly (bed used a lot!) and havent had 1 problem!
