Bedliner Material Question and Answer

Question

Can I use your product to protect the containers and what type of lining is recommended for this job??

Answer

– Thanks for your question Hector,

?Spray on Truck Bed Liner? is actually a Poly-Hybrid or Polyurea formula and in some case a polyurethane. The technology for spray bed liners came from the farm and military industries where slip-proofing and protective coatings were always a reality. Spray-Lining SLPVH product line is designed to be versatile, allowing the applicator to create protective coatings with a variety of characteristics from slip-proof to anti-stick. By using our “Part C” polymer powders in different ratios you can create high tensile strength anti-stick coatings for your specific application. You will use our recommended variation of poly to liquid (part A and B + R [flex] + C [powders]) plus a little bit of testing to get the perfect mix ratio for your application. Typical anti-stick coatings use a ratio of 2A : 1B flex + 1 part powder : 1 part liquid.

In any case, we do not display all of this exp simply because it is all in groups of unique issues that will definitely gloss over the average website visitor?s eyes. But that is the difference between us & Rhino or Line-X; they are a bed liner vendor & Spray-Lining, is part of Green Tech Solutions Team. We are a chemical manufacturer that specializes in coatings. I hope that answered you.

Deciding between Rhino, Line-X and Spray-Lining


Question

What is the most durable spray bedliner?

Answer

That is relative to applicator and prep…. But, for the sake of argument, a polyurea-hybrid or poly-hybrid in general exhibit better specs for adhesion, tear and impact resistance than polyurethane or aliphatic urethanes.


Does thickness matter for ALL types of bed liner?

Answer

Yes. Any material will adhere and protect better if it is thicker. So, in a relative manner, thickness ALWAYS matters. Different materials may have comparable specs to each other at different thicknesses, but, it’s not so significant that you could say, ‘this material at 1/32″ is as strong and durable as that material at 1/2″‘. It just doesn’t work that way….


How thick are DIY Bed Liners Compared to Professional

Answer

That depends on who you are talking about. Most DIY Bed Liners are applied at most 30 mils which is 1/32 of an inch. If you read reviews of Raptor, Al’s and others you will see consumers state that they bought multiple kits.
A professional sprayed bed liner is supposed to be 125 mils in thickness in high use areas and less on verticals. However, this is the game… Some applicators may try and get away with applying less because they make more money and most people would not know the difference.

Spray-Lining Products are produced to be applied at 60 or 125 mils throughout the entire project. We are the only company that offers a DIY system designed to compare with a professional sprayed bed liner like Line-X or Rhino Linings.
