Hiya

I'm just looking at the new ionics catalogue and I'm impressed with their "speedliner".

Am I right in thinking this is different to protectacoat?

If so, can you get it from anywhere else?

I'm thinking ahead to my next van this time next year.

Thanks

I think it is protektacote and you can get it anywhere, wcw for one & you can also get it from the manafacturers website the price is almost the same

I had Ionics Speedline my last van. (Trafic) and it was £550. There are firms all over the country that do Speedlining and its not exclusive to Ionics,its just meant to be the best floor protector. I Protekta-Koted my new van myself (£40 i think) and the results are very good. The only benefit of Speedliner (imo) is that you can have it in any colour and that it is sprayed on very thick. You can spray Protekta-Kote now so probably a better option as its alot cheaper and you can't get diy Speedline kits.

Thanks, so it is different, but protectakote is nearly as good, but alot cheaper?

Might protactacote be thicker if it was rollered on? Or would it take forever to dry?

I think speedliner is supposed to be a tougher more durable finish, but you may find protectacote perfectly adequate and a lot cheaper.
