Nah roll on or get a compressor and spray yourself...... i refuse to pay $300 plus for someone to do it when i can do it myself for $100.....

I say best roll on option is Monstaliner ^^^^^^^^ then i would say herculiner.....

As for spray on ..... Raptor would be your best bet.....

It looks like I am going with monstaliner. I talked to a specialist there and he said a gallon kit would cover my CJ tub. I did however call Ziebart to see how much a Rhino lining would actually be and he said that if the tub is on the frame it would cost $1500!

 

Thats crazy. I got mine professionally sprayed with Linex (SP?) and it cost me $360 for the inside of the tub. Maybe he though you wanted the whole body sprayed, inside and out? :nuts:

 

Maybe its because of the Rhino Lining product? I mean, I couldnt believe it was $1500 either. He said if the tub was off he would charge like $750. I guess the labor involved to tape off stuff that shouldnt be sprayed is worth $750? A monstaliner kit will run me about $140, and $140<<<<$1500 so that is good enough for me. I like doing it myself anyway. Plus while it is drying and I cannot drive it, that gives me time to work on the electrical and get my sound system going!

 

would anyone like to see a thread on the process of this with pictures and such?

 

I had the inside of my tub lined by a Rhino lining shop and it only cost me $450.00. There is either a communication break down between you and Ziebart or the guy is trying to rip you off.

I've seen both roll on and professionally sprayed on liners, both seem to be effective and look sharp in the end. I felt (and it could just be me) that the professional lining seemed thicker and I wanted to be sure of no rust issues in the future so I went with the pro shop.

Good luck!

 

I used the Dupli-Color brand roll-on product, with good overall results. I did have one area come off of the bed, but that was because the winch was rattling around back there and broke the liner away. I was disappointed because it is supposed to be a truck bed liner and didn't hold up to that, but no issues anywhere else.

 

Yeah, that price is not normal. The PO used Herculiner on mine, and it's awful. I'm looking to have it Rhino-lined and I was told it would be $350 at both dealers around me that I called.

 

When talking to the dealer about DIY roll on bedliner, he advised to make sure that you prep it right. Maybe your PO did not prep it right, thus the crappy job.

 

I called a different dealer and again was told $1500. This time I specifically told him Jeep CJ5 tub and he said it was labor intensive to tape and cover anything that wasnt being sprayed. How is this possible? Are you guys generalizing rhino lining like kleenex or coke? I called the actual Rhino Lining brand dealer. Maybe I am not saying something right, but I keep getting told $1500!

 

I had a quote at one time from Line-x for $300

 

So there must be a communication issue here where we are calling every spray on bed liner "rhino lining"

 

Nope.... just suggestions...... why waste the money on "rhino lining" when there are cheaper just as good products?

 

Line x

I had the bed of my pickup line x over 9 years ago and it has held up great. If the cost is not too much more, in my opinion the line x is a better product based on some rhino jobs I have seen. My line x has weathered well where the rhino did not.

 

I am going to go with the DIY monstalining...I will post a thread with pics and such to let you guys know how it turns out....If i prep it correctly I should get great results

 

I would def love to see the results... since monstaliner is going to be my choice.... Thanks! Good Luck! :thumbsup:

 

You just cant beat Raptor by UPOL. Tintable or Black kits, 100 bucks and even comes with the gun! Check my threads for pics.

 

they say two part spray on or roll on is the best um its hardddd to keep clean

 

I did my tub last year ,you can check out my pictures its a few pages into my thread. I am very happy with my lining so far.:thumbsup: I sprayed it on and it only cost me $85.00 for the kit and $12.00 for the undercoat spray gun. Seems to be holding up great, just remember , the whole job is the prep!!!!!!! I don't care what product you use if the prep is not done correctly it's going to peel and lift, then you really have problems. Just remember , when you have it all sanded to your satisfaction , wash it down and you will still see unsanded spots , sand it again, I sanded and cleaned mine 4 times . Good luck
