Line- X or Rhino lininng
Need some suggestions or opinions on what the best liner is to use for my '10 jk. This is my first jeep and have lined anything before. I would appreciate the insight and maybe even a completely different direction like a good diy product. I know my friend used herculiner but it seemed to be a bit of a pain. Thanks for the help!

Line-x is by far the best. It is a dual chemical process that is mixed as it is sprayed under heat and chemically bonds to the surface. Additionally, line-x is guaranteed for life and they will touch up for free.
I have a bumper, rails, sliders, mirror brackets, pegs and trim pieces all line-Xed and they take a beating without a problem. I rhino lined my old YJ and it was ok but not great. The DIY is fine but you get what you pay for. Just my 2 cents

Line-x is best, Rhino Tuff-Grip is probably a better application for a Wrangler tub.
Skip them both and do either Upol or Monstaliner.
Just as a serious question - how many times do you intend to throw a railroad tie or dump a load of rock into your Wrangler? None? Yeah, that is what I thought. Virtually every bedliner is total overkill for the conditions seen in a Jeep tub. You don't need the bombproof capabilities of Line-x.
If money was no object....I would still roll on Monstaliner. I might have chosen Upol if I did it again, but the extra care and time you can take ends up with a better looking job overall. Line-x looks great, but a lot of shops (almost all) will not take the time you will if you are anal retentive. I removed everything, rerouted wires, etc. Line-x said they would spray over all wires - and if they aren't spraying over them, they are stopping short.
Look up the guy on here with blue Upol - it looks fantastic and will provide more than enough protection for where it has been applied.

Line-X hands down. It is a far superior product than rhino lining. Plus, rhino lining seems to fade much more than the line-x does. I've lined 3 truck beds and my 74 Bronco tub with Line-X and couldn't be happier. I have not had a problem with any of them, and they offer a full lifetime warranty against chips and dings.
