WHAT IS THE BEST SPRAY IN BED LINER? | Factory vs Line-X

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Should you pay for a bed and protection package from the factory or get it sprayed yourself at a local Line-X dealer? I compare both to see if they are the same or if one is better than the other.
After having my 2019 Silverado RST with the GM bed and protection package for a year and a half now it has held up well. I have had several gaylord pallets in my bed and it hasn't chipped or scraped up.
My Dad just had his 2019 Silverado 2500 HD 8 foot bed sprayed with Line-X so we will see how it holds up over time.

    Good thought provoking review! I had a Line-X bed-liner sprayed in my 2015 truck in 2016 and had a folding cover on the bed for protection from elements and thieves...after 5 years of being covered, it was dusty looking like yours is in this video. I went to a local car wash (you need the pressure, a garden hose won't do it) and hit the bed for about 5 minutes with the pressured water and it looked as good as new. Honestly, the Line-X place I went to said most local dealerships send their trucks to his business for the liner and then the dealer stands behind it as factory.

    I would definitely recommend Line-X. I had it put on my 2002 Dodge Dakota back in 03 after I bought it. I've hauled routine house items like yard waste to the dump, 2 couches, 3 fridges. And when my cousin had to downsize is company 3 times by moving pallets weighting around 3,000 lbs. each loaded with fasteners. Then helping him this year when he moved to a bigger warehouse when is business got better. The guy that ran that location told me that I could go head and use it. Also, I notice that he forgot to reinstall the 2 cargo hooks in the back of the bed which he did not spray. He didn't spray them just in case I had to change them if they got damaged. he knocked down $200 from the job because of that. And I just got the 2 price quotes 1 for under the bed sides, and 1 for over the bed sides. I went with the over the bed side to cover and protect the top of the bed sides. And it still looks like the day it came out of the Line-X place.

    I work for one of GMs tier 1 spray on company as a repair man. And I can tell ya we wouldn't pass the truck on the left , the lines on the pillars are croocked and not straight. We tape/mask them with a straight wire and tape them making them for visually appealing. But it's still a good liner from linex . I guess working at the place made me a snob or at least I can tell details lol. I'm glad your happy with either or and hope this little comment doesn't make it stand out too much. Just a small detail that I noticed for working at my job . Especially as a repair man. I would come in and redo the line and patch them. And if the patch is no good then I would respray the truck again. Making it a little thicker ( it's good for customer a thicker liner just last longer and no chance of poking through bad for us cause we would have to remask the truck and materials and man power to do it) hehehe

    Full disclosure, I am a LINE-X franchise. LINE-X comes with a lifetime, nationwide warranty. The Factory comes with a 3 year/36K waranty, which they will send to a LINE-X dealer generally to do repair as the dealership has no way to fix it. While it may look thicker to you, the is just how the machine does the edges on the factory. If you were to take both trucks to LINE-X and have them put a thickness guage on it, you will find the floor of your LINE-X bedliner is at around 100 to 125 mil. Factory generally is at about 40 to 60 mil. Also, we have found when we go to tear out the factory (many customers have found the difference) they often only prep the edges, which creates sort of a "floating" liner. An actual example can be seen here. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWWej9KGkq6qkrg.html

    You lost me at "It's at least 1/4 inch thick". Specs are 120 mil which equates to 1/8th thick on the floor. Your factory liner is prepped around the edges and the edges only. That Line-X is prepped 100% of the surface. I can remove a factory liner in about 2 hours... I can remove a Rhino or Line-x typically in 8-12 hours. That Line-x liner is much much much better than any factory liner.

    Line-x owns the OEM liner company its called UL Ultimate Linings. The OEM bed liner I found is better then the Line-x the difference and all that matters in most liners is how think the liner is sprayed. The OEM liners are sprayed by a robot in Michigan and tend to be sprayed thin when sprayed at minimum of 6 passes will out do regular line-x . I have professionally sprayed both for over 20 years.
