Hi,
This is a follow up to a post I made a few weeks ago. I am considering getting a Rhino ECO roof as a replacement roof. I got some feedback on this but nothing from someone who has first-hand experience with this product. There are not many reviews on the internet, and the ones that I have seen are not necessarily relevant because they are from people who got the truck liner sprayed on their roof (which is not the same and not a good idea) or who got it sprayed on by someone who was not certified to do so.

Can anyone provide first hand experience with these roofs? One of the things I am wondering / concerned about is heat. The product claims to reduce heat inside in the summer since it is a silver/reflective color. But at least one person online said it did the opposite (although this does not make sense to me).

Any additional info would be appreciated.

thanks
Matt

Same here. 2000 F350 Rhino liner in great condition....construction truck for a few years. LineX is a more uniform finish, and just as good.

I think a lot would depend on the substrate its applied to. On mass produced slapped together RV's thats usually thin 8mm or thinner plywood or OSB, which might even be attached to metal roof joists with smooth pneumatically driven staples. At least EPDM, TPO, or Vinyl membranes can accommodate movement in the substrate.
