Tom - IMO, there's a company called "Rhino Linings".. take your Scout to
one of their franchises... and have it sprayed.  voila. ;-)

On the PlastiKote/Walmart Bedliner discussons of times past... I have
two friends in the "biz" of 4x4s n' such.. one uses a product I can't
remember the name of to do linings.. $250 and he'll shoot in the
interior of my Scout.  I've seen the stuff on another guy's Toyota.. in,
out, and the 'cage.. and it looks good..

BUT.. the OTHER friend has used the Walmart Plasti-Kote spray-on
bedliner and likes it.. and is trying to find a supplier to sell him
large *sprayable) quantities (NOT rattle cans).. thus far he's only
found PALLETS.. which is more than he needs at the moment.. but he's
been very impressed with it and plans to acquire a bit and start
spraying for the local car dealerships (he lives in north-western MT,
and the closest place to get a spray-in bedliner is Missoula.. 100+
miles from where he is).

So... I kinda take that as a thumbs up for the Plastikote liner... but
as Rob has said (btw, the gentleman in question is Rob St.Clair.. I
believe he was the President of UFWDA this past year), the rattle can
approach is cost prohibitive.. but if you can get it "plain" and use a
paint sprayer... *THEN* it's a good deal.

Of course, if I see it and like it, I'll talk to Rob about maybe
reselling the stuff...
