Not to steal this thread but when Richard mentioned endcaps I started thinking of other areas this could be used. I was thinking of inside the trailer over the wheel wells. That might prevent them from cracking and if they are already cracked, like mine, it would seal and strengthen them.

Makes much more sense now. Yea the Line-X i is like non-skid tape.
quote=boatdoc]Hey craftsman; jkru is correct, and it is something I forgot to specify. Rhino can be done in relatively smooth finish, although it will have some texture. From what I understand the hardness can be controlled as well. It can be matched to many color schemes. It is FDA approved for potable water tanks and resists bacteria growth,and can be easily cleaned. If FDA approved it for that, I will approve it as being hygienic enough for my bathroom walls. My bed liner cleans very easily with car soap and water. Line-X at first was first considered by me for the bed of my truck. After seeing one done, it felt like non-skid tape which would take your skin off if you rubbed on it. The reason I went with Rhino because even with texture it is not abrasive. I do not see why minimal texture would make cleaning difficult. Thanks, "Boatdoc"[/quote]
In 1999 I had SPEEDLINER applied to the teak and fiberglass decks of my boat. It is great. Has been in the weather ever since. Recall that this stuff is used in lion cages in zoos and other high traffic and wear applications.
It is available in many colors and can be applied smooth. Today you can apply some brands with a roller so there is not the overspray problem. Rhinolinger, Speedliner, Gatorliner all of the same genre.
I have pictures and how I did it on my web site. I love the stuff!!!!!

For anyone that might be interested one source of a coating material used for such things as bed liners that you can install yourself is the following:
The products are available in a variety of colors and either with our without texture. By the way the products evidently are used extensively for maritime applications.

Hi Malcolm;
My Rhino dealer is letting me down as I have not heard from him yet. I hate to call and pressure anyone to take my money and your post became a welcomed possibility. I like to thank you for that suggestion. I will contact Duraback and get some specifics after which I will follow with a update. Thanks so much for that input Malcolm. "Boatdoc"

You are certainly welcome. I will be interested to see what you think. When you contact them you can request samples in the color or type of texture you want to check out. What came with the literature that I ordered were two samples about 1-1/2" x 2". One was textured and one was smooth. As I recall I also spoke with someone in sales on the phone that was very helpful. The textured sample has granular particles in it that I can well imagine would be dynamite for anti-skid treatments on boat decks. I was told the the granular version is also a bit tougher because of the granules.
Wow, I gotta check this stuff out. I think that I can find many uses for a product such as this,in my line of work. By the way, Malconium, good to see someone else in the group is here in orygun
The spray booth was heated to about 110 while it was sprayed
We routinely hit 110 degrees out here in the summer - in the shade. Direct sun temps are well above that. And then there's Phoenix....
There are no problems with pre-heating to 110.

It was january when I had it done... the contrast between the booth and the outside was extreme... Yeh, 110 is no big deal.
I think this material could also be an excellent seam sealer. It is very flexible and water proof. spray it over all the seams while the skin is out, might work well.
