The right paint job can do more than spruce up a room. It also can help it survive an explosion. LIne-X of Santa Ana, CA, which is best known for its spray-on truck bed liners, put 1/8" of its XS350 coating on a concrete wall and arranged for the U.S. Air Force to detonate 400 pounds of dynamite several feet away, simulating a truck-bomb attack. When the smoke cleared, the treated section of wall remained standing. The Air Force is now using this coating to protect buildings in the Middle East.
Wow! If its good enough to handle that, protecting my truck bed then is a no brainer.
