Line-X?

Anybody have this done to their car? I was watching Trucks! of all things yesterday, and they did a Line-X job to this jeep thing. Basically this stuff is some sort of wonder material that it 100 times better that undercoat, so its a rust protector, but they alos demonstrated its extreme strength. They went up twenty feet above ground and droped a cinder block. It just shatters, right. Well then they treated another cinder block with line-x, and dropped it from 20 feet. THE CINDER BLOCK BOUNCED! It didnt break at all!

I'm thinking this would be awesome for us older cars with inherent rust problems. I don't know about price yet, but I'm sure it aint cheap!

yep thats the stuff! its not just used for bedliners though. The military been playing around with it, and on the show i was watching, they spray it on like paint. Although paint sprays at like 40psi, this stuff sprays at like 200+psi. Its a two part compound that is mixed in the spray gun. Thats all I really know about it. sounds real cool!

hi guys, wow, long time no post on here... it's been months. anyways, i no longer own a honda, but a 2002 tacoma, and line-x is pretty darn popular in the mini truckin world, it's like hondas and aem, lol. we use it for bedliner, but like mentioned it's been used my nasa among other hard core stuff. this stuff is major and cost quite a bit of money, to spray my bed it'd cost about $300, rough estimate.
