Bed Rhino Lined

Rhino Lining is an excellent product as a bed liner, but also for

many other commercial and industrial uses. The application and

preparation is very similar to paint. I chose to have the Rhino

Lining color matched to the truck. This is mixed at their corporate

facility in California, so it can delay the scheduling of the process

slightly. There is also a UV topcoat that is applied on top of the

Rhino Lining. This is basically paint that is also color matched to

the truck. It helps to protect the liner from fading due to the sun.

If you plan to have the Rhino Lining color matched, consider

other parts you may want lined also. It is much easier to do them

all at once, not to mention less expensive.

Front Bumper Rhino Lined

Rhino Lining the front bumper was no small task. Moving an

object of this size and weight poses many obstacles. The bumper

was removed from the truck when lined so that all sides of it

would be lined. It needed to be rotated several times and allowed

to dry between coats. The new finish needed to be protected from

the jig that was attached to a floor jack. Using a jig to hold the

bumper at the right angle made installation a one man job.

Rear Bumper Rhino Lined

Rhino Lining the rear bumper was much easy than the front. The

rear bumper was also removed from the truck so that all sides

of it would be lined. The chrome was stripped off by sandblasting

and then POR-15 was applied to protect the bare metal from

moisture. The Rhino Lining was then sprayed on over the POR-15.
