Dead thread resurrection:
I had a Bullet Bedliner sprayed in. It was developed by the same guy who originally developed Line-X before he sold that to DuPont. His non-compete clause expired and Bullet is at least equivalent to Line-X Premium with the same lifetime warranty.

I've had a lot of trucks and looked at a lot of liners before doing this and the Bullet liners were not quite as harshly textured, saw none with fade, Bullet doesn't require anti-fade treatments, and - - -

Line-X cost $650 for what Bullet Rockville MD charged $429. Also got the wheel wells done with Bullet (but without texture so it's smooth) for the same $125 price that a set of plastic liners would have run.

My friend has the bullet liner in his ram. He got it done in Ballston Spa and its awesome!! its thicker than the linex and more rugged (but doesn't rip up stuff that you put in the bed). He got the rails done also and it turned out quite nice. It works well with the goose neck hitch he has installed also. I'll grab some pictures tomorrow in the daylight for you all. I am going to get it installed on my truck in the spring since my budget was spent on undercoating, paint sealant and new tires/level on mine for the winter.

Resurrecting this thread once again. Am looking at these two spray bed liners but will still want to throw down a BedRug just on the floor and the tailgate of the box. Anyone know if there are adhesion problems from the velcro hook and loop used to hold down the rugs?

TIA

Default Velcro adhesion

I haven't tried but am sure it'd stick with no problem.
btw - The Bulletliner is nearing a year old and looks like new still. It's had a lot of stuff slid in & out of the bed a you need to look close to find even the tiny scratches from construction debris & such. The Line-X by a year in a previous truck needed a coat of stuff because it was starting to look a little used.

I had a bullet liner installed in my 2016 about a year and a half ago and I have a landscaping business and use my truck all the time and the liner still looks brand new. Personally, I think bullet liners look nicer than line-x. I had a line-x in my old F150 and it held up well too. Can’t go wrong either way. But I just prefer the bullet.

I've decided to go with the Bullet Liner as they were much more responsive when I inquired and said that as long as the surface is prepped properly, adhesion should not be a problem. Thanks for the feedback.

Found a dealer and had it done yesterday and couldn't be happier. Reasonable price and excellent coverage.

Default I’ve sprayed line x for 16 years have no complaints about the product but with techno

Don’t be afraid to try new products the guy that invented line x took it to another level and I’m gonna become a bullet bedliner sprayer

That looks pretty sweet. I've got a LineX but if this thing takes off I'll have no problem biting the Bullet, as it were.
