Opinions on Spray-in Liners

I'm considering putting in a spray-in liner but there are so many different dealers, each claiming to apply differing compositions, hot/cool applications, high/low pressure, critical of each others product, materials in the truck box allegedly sliding less on one product versus another product (ie. Line-X, Rhino, Armaguard, Armorthane, Reflex etc).

Are there any spray-in brands you would support or recommend avoiding? Thanks

I think mine is a line-x, will check when i get home, i think it still has the sticker on it, if not i,ll call my dealer and ask them.
non slip even with wet footwear although light hard items do fly about in there, i am thinking about putting a rubber mat in there as well,the finish is good, even and no overspray also acts as sound deadening

The whole process depends on the installer. All the materials involved are the same. I have had Armaguard on my last three trucks because the guys who put it in did an excellent job. Shoddy work will result in a shoddy job. Don't rush into geting it done because it can't be undone.

I have Line-X in my 98 K1500. I had it done when the truck was 2 days old. It wears like steel. I can barely tell it from new. The non slip texture is great in wet weather, but kinda tough on the knees on a warm day when wearing shorts. They went 1/4 inch thick on the bottom of the box and about 1/8 on the sides. I would say 1/8 would have been fine on the bottom as well. My next truck gets Line-X.
