I've heard of it, but the Line-X is pretty bulletproof, more of a common brand, and has a great warranty. If this Armadillo was more expensive, no way would I get it. Sounds like the dealer might have an interest in selling this bed liner instead of a Line-X.

Line X platinum is $700 but Armadillo is $425. I will get the Line X. I have never heard of the Armadillo brand.

Im sticking with Rhinoliner. Have had it on my current truck for 12+ years. never had an issue and the most durable liner I have had on a truck. I can get two different thicknesses sprayed, depending what I want. $700 for a liner? Yikes.

Line X is $599 for the premium product full thickness in my area. I had it done for $450 in 2010 but that provider is no longer in business. Guess they didn't charge enough.

How thick is full thickness? Rhinoliner told me I could get up 1/4" for $500 for my truck.

I forget the actual mils thickness number but my Line X is about a 1/8th of an inch thick. Back in 2010, Rhino had two products. One was very thick and almost spongy. Very comfortable to kneel on but was prone to tears and rips. They also had a new product that was similar to Line X but it was new. I've heard a lot of people who are happy with Rhino.

I have never heard of Armadillo but I have a Reflex spray in bed liner in my new truck. Having had both Rhino and Line-X in the past, and liked them very much although I liked Line-X better, I will take the Reflex over both of them all day long. It has a grippier type feel and more forgiving. I like that a lot as my other ones were hard like concrete and items still slid around in the bed with them. Not like a truck without a liner but items still slid around. With this Reflex, everything stays in place.
It would be work it to at least check them out. Their website is Spray on Bedliners - REFLEX Premium Truck Bed Protection
They also have another product called Gard-it which is a liner for industrial type heavy duty applications. You can check on their site if there is a dealer near you.
