Farm Camp etc,
All my Rhino liners were and are black and none of them would or will leave black on your hands. 10 years in the direct sun will fade the black Rhino just like it does Line-X or other black sprayed in liners. It's what the sun's heat and the sun's rays naturally does and you can see it for yourself in any big box store parking lot or other places in parked trucks. They all look the same visually after many years of exposure. Both Rhino and Line-X sell a top dressing easy to apply that makes a faded liner look new again but it doesn't repair any rips or gouges etc. They occur far more often in the harder/more brittle type liners as the material simply chips away and you can see this with your own eyes also by looking at as many different brands of older lined trucks as you want to or can find. Hard liner materials used are less forgiving to gouging and are so much more slippery and about everything slides around on it when driving. Proper preprep and application makes a great deal of difference in longivety.
BTW "Farm Camp", What the heck were you carrying on your Rhino lined bed anyway that made the black leave off? I've never seen any of the better brand liners do it.
Incidently, it doesn't make a diddlywop difference to me what anyone else wants as a sprayed in liner in their truck. I'm beyond happy with what we use/used on 4 trucks with the Rhino so far as it's performance for us has been stellar. Also, they've not been under a topper or a cover either except when the Lance TC is on and the truck has never been in or spent even one night or day our garage (too long) or my pole building. It sits outside at all times.
