I had mine done this past week and am completely happy with it. All bolts were removed. The place where I had mine done told me the stick on plastic name under the liner, the yellow window sticker, and the receipt were all necessary for warranty, or any combination of two. I lucked up and got it for cost because he missed my appointment, he was spraying something for a Casino(off site) and it took longer than expected.

Well, I don't agree with all the warranty stuff, but... BTW, to keep the liner always looking new, apply some Just Once (www.justonce.com) a few times a year. If it's dirty, clean it with just water and a stiff brush.

I just had mine sprayed in last week - looks great.
The guys was OK with me not wanting the LineX emblem embeded in the bed - but he did say that it would void the warranty.
I think that is a lame way to void the warranty - and I am sure this is a way for them to be sure they are warrantying their own product and not someone elses - but come on - I have the receipt for it.
Hopefully I never need the warranty - but if I do - I will likely have to jump through hoops and call corporate to get it done, however with all of that said - it is worth it for me to not have any logos or names on the truck - heck ford already has way too many on the thing.

It will absolutely NOT void your warranty. Give me the name of the LINE-X dealer so I can contact him for you. Your name, address, truck VIN, etc. is entered into a database in California. Any dealer across the US can verify that your truck was sprayed with LINE-X.

Thanks TruckGasm,
That is what I had thought.
I am sure it is really just for marketing purposes, and the guys were cool about it- and they did a great job of spraying it in - and it is not something I would ever expect to have to get warrantly service on - I mean what can happen to it? Except for me messing it up?

I got my truck bed sprayed with Rhinoliner. I didn't get the name plate from them, and I kinda wanted the nameplate. I thought it was cool. I just got them to Rhinoline a custom-made bull bar that I've been welding up this summer, and it looks ultra-hella evil on the front of my truck. I'm thinking of taking off the fender flare moulding and having those flares Rhinolined as well.
I was at the Woodward Dream Cruise last year, and I saw a dude with a Jeep Wrangler, who had the entire tub done with Line X. He filled it with water and had a mini hottub. And I'll be damned if it wasn't the coolest idea ever. Thinking of having my carpeting taken out and the Rhinoliner inside... I wonder what they'd charge me for that...

Here's a couple of pics of a LINE-X'd Jeep. They're scanned, so there's some resolution loss:

LINE-X LINE-X What am I going to do with you....?
Happy Holidays to everyone,
Well just to let you know that Line-X San Diego does not put on any window stickers. I figure this, if the person already has stickers on there truck you can ask to see if they want one. Let the customer put it on where they would want it. As for the truck tags I have seen them both sprayed over and placed on the truck everyone places the tag in a different area typically we try to place it in the most inconspicuous spot possible what ever incontinences the customer the least. The bed bolts that is a never ending issue I can tell all of you this, most insurance companies will not pay for a new bed to be installed or sprayed so removing the bed bolts become an issue they cut around the bed bolts using a whole saw or razor blade then they do the welding or repairs needed then the insurance company will only pay for the replaced area to be resprayed so this leaves you with some nice wholes. The only reason why some Line-X’s spray over bed bolts is:
a.) they are lazy and trying to save 5 minutes
b.) they like the insurance work, insurance companies mean more money
On the other hand Rhino Linings Inc. does not remove the bolts for this reason because the liner takes hours to cure or a much longer time to be solid enough to work with, which means you can not tork down the bolts or they would sink into the liner. So everyone has there reason’s in my opinion it is always better to have all hardware removed including the rubber grommets on the front bulk-head of all Fords and Toyota’s. This makes the customers life easier if there insurance company tries to be cheap and we have all had that happen at least once or twice. Any questions about any liner you may call me at my number bellow, I will try to help you to the best of my ability.

Fading
The Issues of Fading,
Yes all polyurethanes fade, and you will not find one that is protected 100% by UV rays. Well…unless you are adding a pigment that is very high in VOC’s and should not be sprayed in the U.S.A. due to OSHA safety regulations so to solve this problem there are Top-Coats and other UV protectors made to reduce or restore the effects of natures elements. If anyone was to say that there liner did not fade at least a little I would have to say it is a lie that goes for Line-X and its competitors. There are some simple steps to help keep your liner looking good.
1.) Power wash your bed out with a “High Pressure Washer,” (Heated will work better.)
2.) Make sure not to let soap stand in your bed after washing your truck, (Park it on an incline.) This will help your bed from getting stained with hard water it tends to discolor “make it look lighter, as if it was fading.”
3.) Apply a silicon based protectant; this will make it look black and shiny without giving up the abrasion quality of any liner. “A trade secret for all bedliner companies is Mop&Glow® (Registered trade mark of Johnson&Johnson) this is a silicon based protectant it will need to be diluted to a 1:1 ratio with water”
This should be enough to help you out, and remember if you have any questions feel free to email me at: Bryan@Line-XSanDiego.com I will be glad to help you with any of your needs good or bad.
Thank you,
