Bedliner on Smash Lab

I had already been planning on lining the floor of the Blazer with a bed liner compound this spring. I saw an episode of Smash Lab on Discovery the other night where they blew up two nissan pickups with 5 lbs of explosive on the rear axle of each. One of the beds was coated with Rhinoliner, and it didn't come apart. Then they put a half inch of Rhinoliner on a cinder block wall and blew a charge a couple of feet in front of it. The wall didn't even come down.

I guess if it can do that, it can probably protect the floor of my Blazer.

Re: Bedliner on Smash Lab

the one thing I really like about Line-X, is that you can bang out dents, after you spray line-X on the metal. Does anyone know if Rhino shares the same quality?

I would bet it does. On the high-speed camera they showed how the Rhinoliner flexed under the force of the explosion and sprang back to its original position, still attached to the cinderblock.
