This is for anyone coming to or living in Canada. Subject product Armaguard Spray in Truck Bedliner. I have dealt with the Sales Manager ( Dave Beeby), then the owner of the local dealership (Scott Davis). Then the company owner(A.E. Arch Bryson). In November 2001 I had the job done, place my truck in the garage and headed south for the winter. Returning April 2002 and took my truck out for the summer. I noticed that there was a bubble under the rear window, I called and they repaired it. Now remember this is only 6 months old and never used. About a month later I noticed another bubble in the bed near the rear window. I called and they said bring it in, but before I could I now noticed that the liner was lifting off the truck rails, actuallly it was separating. The last time I was into the Langey dealer it was indicated that this was the last time they would repair my truck. It was put away in October 2002 for the winter. Again in the spring March 2003 I took out the truck for the summer. Low and behold the repair in the truck bed was lifting again. This time I called the company owner Mr Bryson, he indicated that he would look into my concerns. In late fall I called and he indicated that he was still checking things out. Jan. 2004 Mr. Bryson and I talked again and he indicated that he would be coming out to B.C. and we arranged a meeting and he would look at my truck. He checked it out and told my that the company would do whatever it would take to make it right. Well I attended at the local dealer again and he told me all they would do is patch it. I left never to return. I now went to a company called Rhinoliner they looked the truck over and told me that the installer didn't do the job properly as there appeared to have been moisture between the applied layers. The only solution was to strip the whole truck where the previous liner had been applied and reapply a new liner. Cost approx. $2500.00, depending on the time to strip the truck. I again called Mr. Bryson and told him of what I had found out and he discounted the Rhinoliner claim. So what I am telling anyone who is thinking of getting this type of product, is my experience. You can make up your own mind. This is information is presented without prejuduce.

Sorry you had a bad experiance with Rineno liner. We have had this in our work trucks since 96. Live in the mountains out side of San Diego,where it snows in the winter up 100 in the summer. We are Masonry Contractors and throw a ton of tools and what have you in and out of our trucks daily. The liners are still in great shape no cracks, pealing, bubbles of any kind. The install you got was done bad and prob. did have moisture under. Hope you some how can get your money back.

Ity wasn't Rhinoliner. It was Armaguard. Rhinoliner were the ones to figure out what was done wrong and the cost to fix it. The only reason I chose Armaguard was because the finish was smoother that Rhinoliner. The finish was smooth the the quality was ruff.
