That does seem to make sense. I know the bedliners seem to be very sticky when they are sprayed in the back of trucks but when they are sprayed on the bottom of drift boats they seem not to grab the rocks like you might think . In my opinion it is comparable to Gluvit, but without the upkeep and that terrible noise you hear as your boat screeches over a rock and scrapes a big chunk of Gluvit off the bottom ... I will ask around some more but from what I have seen and experienced in my friends boats you wont be disapointed ....Good luck ...Von Warner
