Rubberized under coating, Pro vs. Non Pro

What's the real difference between Rust-oleum Rubberized undercoating rattle cans and Rust-oleum Professional Rubberized undercoating rattle cans?

Their website does not offer any help and at $5.00 a can dfference (and me being an amatuer) do I really need to spend the extra cash?

The application is on the exisiting undercoating of the under side of the truck bed - purely cosmetic.

Any advice or information would be appreciated.

you need to look at the TDS technical data sheet, booth are made out of different resin and booth dry to a different thickness, also cover wise the regular vs pro, covers more area but is not as thick once dry as the pro covers less and has a nice build. if you just top coating on a existing top coat go with the cheaper one but do your best to get the surface clean, otherwise with time will end up peeling off.

Thanks Josh. I read the TDS but frankly did not understand the differences. I will use the Pro version to spot fill the areas I repaired (1 can) and then re-coat everything in "amateur".

Thanks for the help.

Not a fan of it because water can get under it and rust will occur.
