Default Rhino lining a quad???

hello again i have yet another list of questions.
im going to buy a banshee very soon and was going to get it powder coated. i then pondered about the idea of getting the frame rhino lined or something similar to the rhino brand.has anyone done this?would it be a good idea?ive seen the stuff stand up to some real abuse in the beds of trucks.
also, about powder coating how does it differ from just painting the quad?how much does powder coating usally run?

thank you for any help you can give me.

ps GO NEW YORK JETS

a place close to here does powdercoating for about $150 for just the frame.

Unlike painting, powdercoating is basically a dry powder that is sprayed on to the frame and then baked in an "oven" until it is cured. much tougher than just spray painting your frame.

i rhino lined parts of my frame, i put it on the bottom and where my boots rub hoping it would protect it a little. but it wears out somewhat like powder coat, it peals a little more though.

P.S. if you look at my photo page, photo #9 kinda shows it. I did this to the green one.

i've seen a rhino lining, on a frame, if you have it done professional by a Rhino authorized dealer, and get it sprayed on thick, it lasts forever,a nd the color stays looking good. nice thing is that if you chip the lining from riding the warranty will cover it. i would get it done, powder coating is nicer though because of all the color option rhino only has 6 i think. not sure of a cost though. if you ride anywhere except tehir is a lot of sand i would get the rhino lining.,

new LT kid, I noticed you are running 400ex front hubs, are the spindles from a stock LT or not?

its the black lining that you put in your truck beds, adheres to anything and lasts forever

I've seen and talked to people that have had the lower sides of their truck done and the biggest drawback is it's hard to clean and keep looking nice.

Son in law owns a spray bedliner company, if you use Rhino lining, make sure you get a UV top coat.

Check my pic's had it sprayed on the bottom of my ava.
