Do it. Low prep high protection and the color option are great. I would use rhino though. It's a higher quality material and look into a uv protection otherwise it'll get chalky on you.

Re: thoughts on rhino line/grizzle gripping the body?

Except for a Desert Tan Jeep I saw a couple of weeks ago, I HATE vehicles that have been sprayed with bed liner. But paint is a matter of preference and it's your vehicle, but once it's been lined, it's destined to spend its life that way. Damage repair or body upgrades are dramatically complicated, not to mention how pissed off somebody who wants to restore it in 25 years is going to be having to strip all that crap off. But it is yours to do with as you want, but I wouldn't. I'll never own another truck without a sprayed in liner (Line-X my preference) but something will have to change dramatically for me to spray a body. But like the Jeep, never say never...

Re: thoughts on rhino line/grizzle gripping the body?

This is Herculiner at 2 gallons and 1 quart.It is finished now and I did the bumpers and grille as well.
If you want it shiny the UV is $26 a quart or you can roll on epoxy or urethane paint right over the top.It keeps it shiny and lessens the finish to a smoother look
To repair it just roll more right over the top of what you already have.If you don't like it or hang a huge run a body grinder makes quick work of it

I did the tub and lower body below the molding on my 1970 Blazer. I think it is durable and looks pretty good. Drive it where and how I want without worrying too much about the paint. Don't think I would like the whole body done unless it was a complete trail rig.
