I dont support street queening them, but one of the biggest first impressions your truck will make on a potential buyer when theyre interested will be color and condition. Bear in mind that most people dont find the line-x coating to be an added bonus regardless of what they intend to do with the truck, and moreso, you can never really remove the coating should you ever go back on it, or if a potential buyer/customer loved everything else *but* the color.
Dont get me wrong, I drive my truck daily, and ensure it gets used for what it was built for, but I'd be damned if I'd narrow the resale market that narrowly on a truck that I may or may not keep till 'death' hahaha.

I`m reading on hml that the linex fades even with the UV coating.
Does your supplier guarentee it wont fade?
I love the look of this stuff in the photos of the 2door for sale - interesting to know the guarantee situation.

In the same sens for a color change,, the first thing that would come to my mind seeing an H all Line-Xed coated, would be what is he trying to hide?,, is the truck rusted and he's trying to hide it? was the truck un an accident and he's hiding th erepair. I understand how the value could go down rapidely.
and if you cant really get rid of all coating,, for someone that would like to have its original color,, oufffff major undertaking.. not counting +++++$
