Farm Camp etc,
All my Rhino liners were and are black and none of them would or will leave black on your hands.
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..
Just to be clear this was in 1999 as I said earlier...
So after a year on my 1999 Dodge (with no topper) if I touched the Rhino liner I'd come away with a black powdery residue on my hands. It was annoying but not somethign that made me sorry I picked it. Remember this was 1999/2002 timeframe. Again - newer material or treatment (or regular cleaning - LOL) might stop this from happening.
I didn't mean to leave the impression that I didn't like the liner. It did its job well, extended all the way up the sides of the bed and continued right on around to cover the top rail of the bed all the way around. The dealer did a great job of applying it and it always looked great. I hauled dirt, gravel, roofing, lumber, you name it. The only time I ever did any damage was when I dropped a 5ft wide cultivator (several 100s of pounds) from my farm tractor's three point hitch in the bed while unloading it. One of the tines put a pretty good gouge in it, but did not go all the way through. I never even bothered to have it repaired. Nothing else I tossed in there ever was able to put a scratch on it.
The only nit was the black powdery crud it would leave on my hands unless I kept it cleaned on a very regular basis - which I never did...
