Default Monstaliner or Rhino?

I just picked up a Poisen spyder BFH bumper, raw steel, and I'm curious to know if the Monstaliner product, @ less than 100 dollars, is as good a choice as Rhino Liner, which was quoted @ 350-400 dollars.

Thank you.

Are you doing the Monstaliner yourself? I painted my sliders with it. It holds up pretty well, and I have went back and touched it up a few times. I guess the Rhino quote you got was from a paint shop, so it just depends on how handy you are with a brush. I used a roller and laid it on pretty thick too. I wouldn't say it looks "Professional", but good enough for sliders.

Linex if you are going to pay to get it done, Raptor liner if you are going to do it yourself. Both are night and day better than competitors

Thank you both.
The Rhino quote was from a Rhino applicator in Hackensack, NJ.
Prices on everything are high in this area.

I did my bumper with Raptor liner. Assuming you have access to an air compressor for an hour too easy. Bumper would only take one bottle. Kit comes with four bottles.

Did the Raptor lining to entire tub, 4 days prep and 1 day to spray. Would recommend. Don't be like me and over think it, follow the directions exactly and it'll come out great. I tried to get smart with thinners and a HVLP sprayer to go for a smoother texture. Big mistake, the liner is just too thick even up to 20% thinner and 3mm nozzle. It took an hour to get half a footwell covered due to nozzle clogging and I didn't even like the look. Use the kit supplied sprayer and no additives (except color if you go that route) and it'll be a super quick and easy job. Also looks really professional. Just cover EVERYTHING you don't linered, including 5 ft all around the Jeep.
