Spray entire truck in line x?
Pondering spraying my entire truck in line X or maybe a do it yourself kit like this: http://www.duplicolor.com/products/bedArmorAerosol/
Whats everyones thoughts? I use my truck as a truck and I would get brush scratches in new glossy paint by the following october of a fresh repaint so I figured this would work?

Go talk to your local Linex dealer. There's a good chance that he has an application he's done you can look at as an example. My dealer had his personal pickup about 60% covered in Linex color matched to his original paint. Looked great from 20 feet away... A little rougher when you got right up on it. They have a different type they use for external application that s a little smoother than the normal bed liner material. Not a bad way to go and should wear like iron... Go for it! Post a couple picts if you do it.

A kid around here was driving a Jeep Cherokee all stripped down and wheelered out. The entire thing was linexed inside and out and served the purpose. Pretty cool.
Not for me , but go for it.

this is the very road that toasted my orgional paint, small hardwood alders grow along the road bed and scratch up the truck. I put 3 coats of meguaries wax on my narrow toyota and it held up ok but I feel line x is the only fix for the wide full size dodge:

I don't know the brand of the one I saw. It actually seems like a good idea, have thought of it myself. But wasn't sure about the UV light thing. But if they have a product that will hold up it does look cool.

Done alot of research, looks like Raptor liner is a winner- and under $300 if I spray it myself!

local quote for line x was $2500 so thats totally out since thats $500 more than what I paid for the freakin truck. SO, looks like the Raptor liner is it as 2 kits would only run around $300 from amazon and my friend has a nice 40x48 heated shop with a huge compressor
