    I am looking into either one of these for the bed of my truck. Looking to do a roll on liner, due to that I don't have an air compressor. I found a bit of info online about Raptor and it got good reveiws. I haven't found much info on the Monstaliner and only found a few reveiws. Both seem good quality liners. My mechanic's shop use to have a guy that did bed liners and he used Raptor. I found Monstaliner by searching online. Anybody know how one is against the other or recommend something else? Herculiner was another that popped up in my searches. But, it seems that the Raptor liner is better.

    Been happy with raptor, but be sure to prep the bed or it will pull off crack on curves. I need to redo my bed eventually, but I did my whole truck body in it recently using their epoxy primer after a full sand. Haven't ever rolled it though. I'd just invest in a decent compressor and chalk it up to the job.

    Well pleased with everything I have used Raptor on. Tintable on entire body, black on flares, running boards, bumpers. Only sprayed.

    Monstaliner is cool, the truck I rolled it in has been sitting in the sun for the last 3 years and still looks fine.


    Herc sucked when I used it, faded quick.



    I would avoid rolling it on
