Greetings,
I've never heard of Speed Liner, but I have Line-X in my truck's bed and it
is the best. The local Line-X dealer in Orlando even has a ski boat on his
lot that has all the upper surfaces completely done with colored Line-X, so
I guess that it must be good for leaks!
Cheers - Jonathan

Thanks for getting back with me! I'm guessing that this Speed Liner is
something found up my way (Virginia) and not that well known in other
parts. I sure wish I knew more about it. Anyway, the one thing the
guy told me was no matter what I put up there, preparation is key to
having anything, including cool seal stick properly. I'm a farmers
wife with three kids and I don't have the proper tools or know how to
do the job right. My husband, the farmer said if I don't do something
soon, he's gonna turn my beautiful 5th wheeler into a hay wagon!!!! I
don't think our kids will be very happy with me about that so I've got
to do something! Thanks again!

Leave a few brochures for NEW fifth wheelers laying around the house. He'll
have that roof fixed in no time.

Ha Ha! You should be a marriage counselor! I'm heading to the
dealership tomarrow!
I own a coatings company in Iowa and have sprayed alot of trailers. One of
my largest customers is a company here that sells trailers to NASCAR.
They used Rhino, Speedliner and Line-x before calling us. They were happy
with Line-X product but had issues with the others. We got the account
because prep is as important as the material and even a good product can
be applied wrong so my advise would be to go with someone with alot of
experience not just with truck beds but coatings in general. I also would
not put black on a roof because of the amount of heat it will hold. As for
price I use the same equipment as Line-X with a more expensive material
and I would only charge you $3500, with a lifetime garantee, if you were
closer.
