Rhino question

[working Hummer]

I went to the Rhino lining guy here, which is the same as Line-x and he told me he couldn't do the grill and mirrors because they are plastic. I told him I've seen others do this and he said it wouldn't stick very good. Is this true? Anyone having a problem with it or is this guy lazy? I've seen pictures of some of you guys doing this.

It sticks great! They have to sand the grill, then "mist" the product on for the first application. After that they apply as normal.

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but Rhino is NOT the same as Line-X.

For grills and such, I would think you would want Line-X. It ends up being a hard surfaced product. Rhino is applied cold under low pressure and it feels more rubbery after it is applied.

I like Rhino better in pickup beds and whatnot only because I personally like that rubbery texture. But I'm not sure how well that would do on a grill and such.

you know I guess I just assumed they were the same product just a different name. Hmmmmm I guess I'll have to check into that. Thanks

Line-X uses a primer that is made for plastic surfaces. I had to wait on a new local Mine-X shop to order this special primer, since I was the first to request plastic to be sprayed. They had just opened that new location at the time and didn't have nay yet.

I would not use Rhino on the grill. Not only is is more rubbery, but it also appears to be applied much thicker than Line-X for some reason.

thank you guys for the info, I'll have to see if there is a Line-x guy here.
