I have had good experience with the duplicolor rattle can. Have it on my flares right now and it's holding up great, although it's only been a couple months. I have gone thru some think brush and nothing has chipped or scrapped off yet. We shall see tho. Other stuff I have heard good thinks about are herculiner (planning on using that on my rockers when I get my compressor) and I have heard good stuff about AL's bedliner.

I think it all depends how well the surface is prepped and how much abuse it will see. We had rhino lining on some of our work trucks when I was a landscaper, and it was hit or miss. Some trucks held up great and others the lining peeled off and was horrible. I've only heard good things about linex, and in my opinion, it looks a lot nicer, although I think it does cost more.

As far as the rattlecan Berliners go, rustoleum sh*ts on duplicolor. It sticks way better, it's thicker and it doesn't fade at all. I'm a rustoleum can, but as far as professional goes I don't think you can beat line-x.

My moms F-150 has rhino in it and it looks as good as it did when it was done. But my dads last work truck had rhino in it and it got ripped up when he slid in a pallet of grit which weighs a lot. It's mainly about how much abuse it gets. I agree with what he said above, the duplicolor is terrible and looks all chunky, the Rustoleum liner is awesome for DIY. It lays down good and even, it feels like a high grit sandpaper almost.

Rhino's only problem is bad installers, if prepped and mixed correctly it won't peel or fade. Used some rustoleum paint on, on a buddies jeep. After pressure blasting the jeep and painting with brush and roller, the stuff stuck and didn't peel, after a year later he had a couple of chips and scratches cause by rocks and such but it never peeled.
