    how well does linex stand up to UV? I had an old truck bed linexed and it looked like shit after a few years through UV fading..

    for that reason alone, I'd be inclined to wrap it

    From my experience, It is prone to UV damage/fading without a UV chem they use in Linex Premium. It's worth spending the extra few bucks for it but gives it a slightly glossier finish. However, linex will far outlast and be more durable than a professional wrap.

    Wrapping is a good option if you have a very specific color in mind. Linex is good if you just want something you can beat the :censored: out of.

    Wow the prices you guys have been throwing out are cheap. I asked the Linex installer when I had the bed done and he told me $10-$11K
