I wanted to give my honest review on my bed liner, and this is that. I love this bed liner and the company that makes the product so in no way am I trying to "dis them" or "put their product down" but I paid hard earned money from my pocket for it and expect it to hold up to what I was told it would. I wanted to show people out their who USE their trucks NOT ABUSE what to expect it look like. I am also comparing the standard to the premium liner and if it was worth the extra $100, if it'll still turn out to look like the standard after a while(as I show in the video). So if you want to continue making comments "I painted my bed", "boo hoo I used my truck", "maybe you should buy a car" then go for it. It actually helps me, so thank you! I am not going to try to explain myself as I've already done that in previous comments (go check if you want). I apologize if this video had "click baited you" or isn't me saying how great this product is, because I try to tell it how it is. Thank you to those who liked and found this video helpful and I appreciate your support! Have a great day everyone!
I have the same liner. Love it ..i was told by my line-x dealer . That if it chips even if I did it . They will fix it for free. So you should take it back and get your chip from when you hit it with the shovle fixed . I believe it is part of the life time warranty.
I will definitely have to ask about that, I know they told me about it chipping but wasn't sure if it be covered if I did it. It has gotta a few more since this video.
I agree with you . All the people saying it's just a truck.. i paid $70'000 for my truck . I use it as a truck ...i landscape my property using my truck for rock , gravel, sod, etc. But still want it to look good . So I get what he is saying.
I agree with you man. You paid a lot of money for that and expect to get what you paid for. I’m currently shopping for a bed liner and really appreciate your update.
You got what you paid for. You are just a dumb ass and throws everything in his bed. (I threw some watered down paint in my bed and now the water has evaporated so it is only paint) do you not realize that water can evaporate and a shovel can cut through rubber?
Oh no! I used my truck for work! If only there was a vehicle designed to haul things and have material thrown into it... I understand a shovel can cut through rubber. I have shoveled mulch, rocks, dirt, several times out of my bed and made trips to the scrap yard, and so far only took out another chip from the liner. I did not purposely "throw" the watered down paint in my bed but things happen.
All this petty complaints and not using the LIFETIME WARRANTY try any other competitors see if they stand behind thier products or warranty you will NOT find it .... yes I'm VERY happy with my linex premium bedliner after 4 years and still looks brand new
And these I had one before switching to the suppossedly brighter ones. www.lasfit.com/products/lasfit-t15-912-921-led-interior-reverse-backup-trunk-center-high-mount-stop-dome-light-bulbs-6000k-pure-white?rq=yr_2013~mk_ford~md_f-150~zq_w-halogen-capsule-headlamps~dz_back-up-light
Hey Mitch - thanks for posting your honest vid man! Wow, some of these posters are quite ignorant. Haters will be haters forever so don't pay any attention to assholes being assholes. You're a hard working man earning a living. Be proud of that dude. With that said, simply take it back and they should repair it under warranty. I also agree with what others have said and perhaps you should simply buy a thick rubber bed matt. Again dude, thanks for posting!
May be you should have cleaned it earlier. It says stain resistant not stain proof. Like the phones which are water resistant but not water proof. So it might depend on things like how long the stain is exposed to or something like that. I don't know but may be there's something like that. Next time you spill something try cleaning it earlier.
Hmmm correct me if I'm wrong but, resist does not mean 100 percent proof. Water resistant is different from watrr proof. Thanks for the video, now I know what not to do.
You should make a video on methods by which the stains you've mentioned can be removed (if at all) and/or further updates on what products have further stained the bed. This video has been useful to me because I was considering getting a Line-X paint job... it seems the product isn't as durable as I had originally thought and may be more susceptible to staining - a fault other youtubers showcasing their paint job have not pointed out.
They will always say "Resist" and not "Will not" stain is their way of covering their asses. Also if your going to get gravel or dirt or other loose material dumped into the truck you know you will have to shovel out after have a scrap piece of 1/2 inch plywood around to toss in before hand it makes things far easier to get out with all the groves in the bed i usually do that also when im busting up concrete for a plumbing job it works well and helps to save that linex for other stuff.
If any coating prevented metal from denting people would paint the entire vehicle with it. That being said as for the chips isn’t that covered by the Line-X warranty? They most likely wouldn’t re-spray the entire bed but just spot treat it.
If you havent cleaned it since you bought it how do you know if its stained and if it is it's due to poor maintenance can't be disappointed with something you havent cleaned once since you bought it.
I would call the company and show them what happened. You paid for premium and it clearly states that it protects from UV. These companies need to stop stealing our hard earned money. You did an awesome job with the video, but I'll say this... these bed liners seem really good for the normal household stuff from a homeowner ext.. but for the guy who uses it strictly for work, it's going to get scuffed, stained and dented. Thanks again for the update
LINE-X Has no competition. I’ve worked for the company and the quality of the product comes with years of testing like no other. It’s worth the money. No one measures the thickness of the liner like LINE-X does. If you have a bedliner that came from a dealer, rip it out (it will be very easy, trust me) and then take it to get coated with LINE-X.
Picky aren't you! That is the paint from the boards rubbing off! The liner will dull dependinng how you use the bed of your truck. The paint stain, have you used a high pressure washer on it? The bed liners are a big improvement over the slide in bed liners and they dull and will not stain. However they will be painted if you spill paint on it as the surface is rough!
The paint spill PAINTED the textured finish... That's not a stain, it's painted down in the low spots of the textured finish. A power washer might knock it out. The gasoline may have removed the luster finish if u didn't wash it off before it dried. From this video all the complaints you've made are directly related to the user, not the product...
I have small dents in my Line-X also. Its sold as supper tough truck bed coating, but it's not. My truck is my car and I am very carful with it , I have never thrown anything in the bed only ever had one load of cut logs placed in by hand and both wheel arches dented. I contacted the place that fitted it and they didn't even reply. The enquiry I made was ,would it be possible to spray over the existing bed to thicken it up and if so how much would it cost. Several mails and two calls and nothing, people say it's got so many years guarantee but if you can't get hold of then its worth nothing. Its ok but no as good as I was supposed to be.
There is nothing to fix. I work at a truck accesory shop and have for over 15years. No spray liner is gonna stop you from denting your aluminium bed. Or letting paint and water mixture evaporate on it. Eventually it still turns back to paint dumb ass
If you have worked around trucks for that long you should know that my tuck is not the aluminum generation. If you dilute paint enough it stops being paint and just colored water and should easily was off. I gave my honest review of something I spent my hard earned money on and wanted to share it.
It'll definitely keep it's shine even after taking several beating. And if you end up getting it colored instead of just black, it shouldn't fade out. If you're not worried about it fading out then I wouldn't be worried about spending the extra cash.
I think you should make it a habit that at the end of a working day to power wash your truck. Everything will last longer. I have a15 year old SUV that looks almost like the day I bought it brand new and it's all because after every drive, I wash it down, dry it and never let it sit under the sun uncovered when not in use. Imagine all the grief I could have gone thru for 15 years but instead, I dont have to buy a car for the next probably 15 more years. The thing is you don't pile up unwashed dishes on the sink and expect a clean kitchen.
So your complaining about your bed liner not looking perfect? Well I would be more concerned about throwing peices of 2x4 and denting it . Maybe you should buy a bed mat to be able to work out of it without damaging it .
Smfh. For anyone else who sees this video, hes complaining about dried paint he waited to clean, and calling it a stain when the product says, "Stain resistant." It's not stain proof... Use common sense... and his video is with the bed dirty not actually cleaned. My point is, don't take this review seriously. Line-X is a good product.
Rocco Velasco I still see it as a good product but sometimes someone doesn't have time to clean the bed of their truck right away. So yea watered down paint stained the bed is the least of my worries. I try to tend to my things but life happens and things get pushed to another day. Sorry the video wasn't what you were expecting and I appreciate your feedback, have a happy new year!
There's nothing stain proof ...I'm a professional painter I work with different chemicals and I can tell you there's always something or somebody stronger than you same thing happen with chemicals they just lied to you to get the premium package and what the hell ...we will deal with it later....🤔😝 I know it sucks....
If the UV coating has been applied, you should be able to get a rag with some goof off, or other paint remover and wipe the paint off - then Immediately wash with warm, soapy water and check it out. Showing a video of a dirty bed liner and complaining without trying to show us what it looked like new and after you apply a bit of TLC is kinda bullshit.
I have other videos of when I first got the bedliner put in showing it before I started using it. I tried washing the bed several times, most of which included using pressure washer. I have a more recent video on the liner and that stain is still kinda visible. I'm just giving my honest opinion.
@@HitchinMitch I am not flaming you. I have removed spilled paint from a Line-X Bedliner with a rag dipped in Goof-Off before. You have to wash the chemicals off and not let them sit in.
Elbow grease and a brush.... also let’s understand the difference resistant = you have a good chance of it not being permanent, vs 100 stain proof..... water resistant = it resist water but if you soak it changes decline.... even worse your complaint about chips when you’re using tools that will cause damage to metal on plastic.... Just saying you’re complaining Videos like this shouldn’t even be posted given your expectations vs not understanding what you’re getting.
+Unununium I get its a coating and it won't stop everything but I like my things to last. I use my truck, not abuse it. Little care goes a long way. As for the car, I have an 85 BMW 635 that I care for, I've got some videos on it if you wanna check it out!
If you like your things to last you should have cleaned the PAINT when it got on your bed. Miss leading ass video if your gonna talk down a product because of your pure laziness is a douche bag thing to too. Imagine you had a pretty good product and some idiot with a few thousand views is talking shit about your product you sell to make a living. Use common sense bro its not titatinum like the dude said. It's a protectant and bed liner is used for looks on shit other then just beds. So obviously when ur throwing shit and rocks and dust and other anomolies into the liner obv shits gonna fuck it up eventually.
Can you buy this in a spray can? Has it faded? I want to spray this on the front edge of my hood like a bra since I keep getting blasted with cinder trucks. If youre worried about dents, don't buy a Ford! lol
You can get bedliner by rustoleum in a spray can but not line-x. I've used the spray can on fourwheeler racks and they held up well on those. So far haven't had any fading issues.
Jesus Christ is Lord God of all! God bless you all! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is too difficult for the Lord our God, with Christ, ALL things are possible!

I am not sure if they'll cover that but I would definitely call and ask.
I think you need to check the definition of resistant. You seem to think it means indestructible.
I know that if something is resistant it is impervious and should repel things, such as stains. So no I don't think it is indestructible.
I agree with you . All the people saying it's just a truck.. i paid $70'000 for my truck . I use it as a truck ...i landscape my property using my truck for rock , gravel, sod, etc. But still want it to look good . So I get what he is saying.

Stain RESISTANT, not Stain PROOF. There’s a difference. They aren’t going to promise something that’s pretty darn near impossible.
I'm shopping for a bed liner and I appreciate your honest review. Thanks
Bring it back and have it fixed if it's covered under warranty
All this petty complaints and not using the LIFETIME WARRANTY try any other competitors see if they stand behind thier products or warranty you will NOT find it .... yes I'm VERY happy with my linex premium bedliner after 4 years and still looks brand new
Great video. Would be nice to see a update video to see how it resists long term sun fade
I have a few more videos talking about how it has held up over time. 👍
And these I had one before switching to the suppossedly brighter ones. www.lasfit.com/products/lasfit-t15-912-921-led-interior-reverse-backup-trunk-center-high-mount-stop-dome-light-bulbs-6000k-pure-white?rq=yr_2013~mk_ford~md_f-150~zq_w-halogen-capsule-headlamps~dz_back-up-light
Dried paint is not a stain - IT'S PAINTED
I agree this cats goofy that shits the goods
not painted (not correcting you) it the UV problem...they did not spray UV protect...it prevent from getting dry up
If I paid $500 or more for a coating that claim to keep your truck bed looking good and protected.
I would complain too.

Line-X should fix those scratches and chips for free. Just call them and tell them.
They will always say "Resist" and not "Will not" stain is their way of covering their asses.

You do know linex has body armor now right ?
If you havent cleaned it since you bought it how do you know if its stained and if it is it's due to poor maintenance can't be disappointed with something you havent cleaned once since you bought it.
Thnx, was in market and this video helped. : )

Advice, buy an old pickup box trailer. Put dents and scratches in that. Way cheaper to fix.
LINE-X Has no competition. I’ve worked for the company and the quality of the product comes with years of testing like no other. It’s worth the money. No one measures the thickness of the liner like LINE-X does. If you have a bedliner that came from a dealer, rip it out (it will be very easy, trust me) and then take it to get coated with LINE-X.
I definitely will never opt for the factory spray on bed liners. I know what you mean, I felt like I could pick it off at the dealer by hand.
Maybe need to do a pressure washing and then apply a coat of armor all or detail cosmetic, and for that stain you can try thinner or mineral spirits
I was told by my local Line X dealer that armor all dries out the liner.
Picky aren't you! That is the paint from the boards rubbing off! The liner will dull dependinng how you use the bed of your truck. The paint stain, have you used a high pressure washer on it?

no it not paint, it UV protections spray (to keep it not color fade out and dry the polyurthane
I have small dents in my Line-X also. Its sold as supper tough truck bed coating, but it's not.

Paint doesn’t stain. It’s paints on. I’ll bet a pressure washer takes most of that and scuffs out.
Mine cracked after 3 days and linex would not warranty it. It sucks. Wouldn’t purchase again
Well I can understand, you should speak to the one who applied the coating, see if you can get them to fix it.
There is nothing to fix. I work at a truck accesory shop and have for over 15years. No spray liner is gonna stop you from denting your aluminium bed. Or letting paint and water mixture evaporate on it. Eventually it still turns back to paint dumb ass

Here's my comment for your video, thanks for the advice.
Thank you.
I was going to get this but will just skip it. My tundra is already scratched to shit inside despite having bedrug (dirty gets underneath it)
Resists stain isn't stain proof. Would you recommend lining a whole offroading van with the premium?
It'll definitely keep it's shine even after taking several beating. And if you end up getting it colored instead of just black, it shouldn't fade out. If you're not worried about it fading out then I wouldn't be worried about spending the extra cash.
Thank you
Buy a mat that covers the bed?
you haven't mentioned the most important detail... what was the cost?
It was about $600 for the one I got. But can be different for the size of the bed and if you get the rails done.
@@HitchinMitch Sweet, thx.

do the whole truck!
So your complaining about your bed liner not looking perfect? Well I would be more concerned about throwing peices of 2x4 and denting it . Maybe you should buy a bed mat to be able to work out of it without damaging it .
If you want to keep from denting it then put in a poly liner or a mat.
Nice job

Pretty sure he said it was mostly water, with some paint in it. So, not paint.
Says resists not "prevent" that's where they get you.

dried paint isnt stained you painted it. nothing will stop that no matter how diluted it is. best bet is try to get some paint stripper
Dude! You have an aluminum truck bed. It's going to dent!
F150 didn't go aluminum until 2015, mines a 2013. So steel bed 👍
Resistant and leave it uncleaned for months proof are not the same thing.

First thing they do when it is installed is grind the paint off the bed. Warranty voided.
They'll scuff the paint so the coating has something to adhere to.
👏👏👏✊️🏆
I wouldn't put that crap on my truck
That's not how you unload a bed. Everybody knows you put it in reverse, hit the gas and then slam on brakes. 😁
Click bait.... again.... smh
