I bought the cheap stuff from Walmart and it is still holding up well.

This is a roll on application.

I'm using Duplicolor, no complaints what so ever. Just prep the correct way and you will be fine

what about rhino lining. it is the thickest and most durable there is.
but it's not a do-it-yourself type thing. and costs a bit more.

I'm also using Duplicolor, and it's holding up great. I'm about to go up to the highest bodyline with it soon. It's not terribly textured, but it's not totally smooth either. It has a nice tough appearance, without really being all that ugly looking like some higher texture liners can be.

I think the professional stuff like Rhinoline etc. has a different application process than the do-it-yourself kits. It goes on really hot and kinda bakes onto the surface hence the higher price. I would think it lasts longer too....

For the home project kits you cant beat the price but I dont think it can be compared to the professional stuff. Just my $.02.
