Rhino Linings® UV Topcoat: Keep Your Bedliner Looking New Longer
Protect Your Investment from the Texas Sun
A spray-in bedliner is one of the best investments you can make to protect your truck. But in Texas, intense sunlight and year-round UV exposure can gradually change the appearance of any exterior coating over time.
That's why Central Texas Truck Coatings offers the Rhino Linings® UV Topcoat—an optional upgrade designed to help your bedliner maintain its rich black color, resist fading, and stay looking newer for longer.
If your truck spends time outside, the UV Topcoat is one of the best upgrades you can choose.
Why UV Protection Matters
Texas is known for its hot summers and intense sunshine. Those same UV rays that fade vehicle paint, dashboards, and trim can also affect the appearance of an unprotected bedliner over time.
While your Rhino Linings bedliner is engineered to provide outstanding protection against impacts, abrasion, and everyday use, the optional UV Topcoat adds another layer of defense against prolonged sun exposure.
Benefits include:
- Helps maintain a darker black finish
- Improves resistance to fading and chalking
- Makes cleaning easier
- Enhances long-term appearance
- Provides additional protection from harsh weather
What Is a UV Topcoat?
The UV Topcoat is a protective finishing layer applied over your Rhino Linings bedliner during installation.
It is specifically formulated to improve resistance to ultraviolet (UV) rays while helping preserve the appearance of your bedliner for years to come.
Think of it as extra protection for the surface of your investment.
Is the UV Topcoat Worth It?
For many Texas truck owners, the answer is yes.
If your truck:
- Is parked outside every day
- Sits in direct sunlight
- Is used for work
- Is a daily driver
- Is a newer truck you'd like to keep looking great
- Is a truck you plan to keep for several years
...then the UV Topcoat is a smart upgrade.
Many of our customers tell us it's one of the best decisions they made because it helps their bedliner maintain its appearance over the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does every bedliner need the UV Topcoat?
No. Your Rhino Linings bedliner is durable and protective on its own. The UV Topcoat is an optional upgrade for customers who want enhanced resistance to fading and easier maintenance.
Will the UV Topcoat stop fading completely?
No exterior coating can be guaranteed never to change over time when exposed to years of sunlight. The UV Topcoat is designed to improve UV resistance and help maintain the bedliner's appearance longer than it otherwise might.
Is the UV Topcoat worth the extra cost?
For many customers in Central Texas, yes. Trucks that spend a lot of time outdoors often benefit the most from the added UV protection.
Can I add the UV Topcoat later?
In many cases, it's most practical to have the UV Topcoat applied during the initial installation. If you already have a Rhino Linings bedliner and are interested in options, contact us and we'll be happy to discuss what's possible for your specific situation.
