Default Bed Liner: Herculiner or RustOleum?

It's finally time. I am sick of my drop in liner and I need to get a nice spray/roll on liner. I have narrowed it down to these two, both of which are available around here, I just can't decide which one.

Does anyone have any personal experience regarding durability, UV resistance, texture, etc.?

Just trying to find some information to help me make my decision, any comments are welcome.

The two links are:

i have been kicking the idea of diy bedliner for a little while too, after i saw how expensive line-x is. a few hours on google and i found this stuff called AL'S its a 3 part spray on liner and is said to be more like line-x then anything about 110 to 180$ depending on the website. something to consider i geuss. im no help on your two choices though....

I bought the Raptor Liner a couple weeks ago. Have not sprayed it in yet. May get to do it this weekend if I get the buffing finished....

Dlyter09 used Duplicolor aerosal stuff and likes it. I would never use herculiner.

So would the Duplicolor Bed Armor be better?? It has Kevlar and stuff so it's supposed to be pretty durable?

I think that might be the best way to go, mostly because it has the UV Protectant in it. But now the question is, rattle can or roll on? The rattle can is supposed to not be as textured, and the gallon can is supposed to have more Kevlar bits.

Honestly my spray on has enough texture for me. I cant stand having the super gritty sand paper type bed liner. I guess you could always just buy a can and spray a bit to see if it is what you are looking for. If its not just get the roll on type.
