Does anyone out there have any experience with any of the bed liner products? I am looking to get the bed done on my truck and the 3 I am considering are Qwikliner, Rhino, Line-X, and Herculiner. I used the Qwikliner on my Jeep already and it worked out pretty good, a little qwikliner labor but it has held up. A friend of mine also got the different quality of qwikliner which seemed very thin but it was smooth, not to rough.
What say you?
If you're wanting something that will last go with Line-X. You won't regret it. I worked at a Line-X so I can answer just about any question you have about bedliners.
Yes. I had line-x in my old s-10. I loved it. Stuff was VERY tough.
Recently I have applied qwikliner on my truck .I am fully satisfied with their product, price and installation process.

jbo is a bunch of leg humpers!! hahahaha
For me, a product is more than the thing you buy. When I went with QWIK Liner, I am impress with the presentation, installation, service "and quality of the bedliner. It all added up to a great product. After the lining was installed, I naturally started to notice other spray-on linings and bed-liner solutions in other trucks. None of them looked as good.

Sounds like something a paid "satisfied customer" would say on an infomercial lol. I've never even heard of Qwik liner so I googled it and came up with a handful of pictures, and wasn't impressed. It looked better than Rhino lining, but not quite as good as Line-X.
I had line-x in my silverado. No complaints.
Line x is the @!#$
got it put in a year ago in my F-150. I use my truck to so that line has seen alot of use in the last year and today, a year later, if I wanna make it look new again all I have to do is wash and scrub it.
I have seen other trucks with rino liners to BTW and the rino liner looks like junk next to the line-x
I paid like 430 or something like that installed at a line-x dealer and the job done was 100% professional. expensive yes, but well worth it. and has a lifetime gaurantee against any chips or anything. damn strait I got that piece of paper on file :-)

^^Lifetime guarantee only covers defects in the liner. IE: If it started bubbling up or peeling. There's no way any liner company could give a guarantee to cover chips/damage from wear and tear because nothing is indestructable. Line-X can be repaired though, and repairs are usually cheap.
Yeah it'll take a good beating, but if you hit it with something heavy and sharp it'll chip. You would be surprised the kinds of things people expect to be covered under warranty. I had a guy bring in a tailgate telling me I had to fix. It had a pretty good sized chip in the liner and a big gash in the metal. I asked him what happened, and he said him and his wife were loading a refrigerator into the truck, and that it "barely hit the tailgate". I told him something like that wasn't covered under the warranty, but I would fix it for around 30 bucks. I patched the liner, and even resurfaced the whole tailgate for him since it was an Xtra liner (topcoated for a glossier look and fade resistance), but he was still ill towards me about it and ranted and raved about how we should have fixed it for free. It wasn't my fault he made his wife carry a refrigerator she obviously couldn't handle.

Don't you hate people like that? You do more than you need to for them and they completely overlook it? Makes you want to just do the job to the level you're expected, not so much what you're capable of.
I'll second the Line-X. I know 2-3 guys that have it on theirs(even have a guy with a Samurai that put it all over the place), it's held up very nicely for awhile now.
