Low pressure products are usually made of 100% polyurethane and are significantly inferior to the high pressure products that are usually either a hybrid polyurethane/polyurea or 100% polyurea.
For example, here are some tear strength numbers from technical data sheets. (Higher numbers are better.):
Rhino Tuff Stuff (low pressure) - 145 psi
Rhino Tuff Grip (high pressure) - 225 pdi
Rhino Hardline (high pressure) - 225 psi
LINE-X Standard and Premium (high pressure) - 490 psi
LINE-X Pro and Platinum (high pressure) - 750 psi

Whats the color of your truck? Race Red?

In that case, it might be a cartridge based product. The chemicals come in tubes, like a caulk tube. It's a lower pressure than even the low pressure bedliners like Rhino Tuff Grip. It's not really a professional product, anyone can buy it. However, it is better than the Walmart stuff like Herculiner. All you need is a little air compressor and the spraygun which looks like this:

Looked over the truck; couldn't find any overspray. Took about 4 hours for the shop to complete.
We really like the Race Red with the contrasting black sport trim. Did see a 2015 Ruby Red sport "in the wild" yesterday and looked great. Seeing more 2015's in the local area as time goes on.

line-x vs Factory
Here are some differences:
Thickness - LINE-X is about 125 mils on the floor. Factory is about 65 mils.
Fading - LINE-X Premium and Platinum are aliphatic (UV stable) and will keep its color similar to your truck's paint. Factory is aromatic (not UV stable) and will fade a lot faster.
Warranty - LINE-X is lifetime. Factory is 3 yrs/36K miles.
Repair - Any LINE-X dealer can make a repair with original product. Truck dealership can make a repair as long as it dime size or smaller, but does not have the original product. If the repair is larger than a dime, they will send it out to a company like LINE-X.
