Back on subect....I just did a quick test of the Spray Can Bedliner stuff.
Used it to fix up the rear bumper of the TJ before sale and did a test spray on a strip of aluminum with several built up coats.
Looks promising,
Results posted soon.

Well guy's I did go with the Line-X for my ARB bumpers. The finished bumpers look great (that my opion anyway) and i was happy with the price too.

Line-X was $125 per bumper plus $25 per bumper for the xtra UV coating...

If anyone is interested I posted some finished photo's in the "Show & Tell area.

Based on my tests with Spray Can Dupli-color bed liner...I think I'll have my ARB done professionally.

Happy to hear that, I really had my doughts about a spray on can liner for a bumper. Save it for the inside of your hard top.

I know it's been a long time since you posted this but that seems really cheap. What dealer did you use? How is that holding up? I'm looking for a dealer closer to Chicago and hoping to get a similar price. I had a bedliner done once and the price was right but they did a lousy job on the installation because they gave it to the new guy to practice.
