Damn. Yall naysayin' summabitches are talking me out of a bedliner finish. I was concerned about getting a smooth finish without any texture to assist in hiding.
Bedliner works fine, its your truck. Do what is best for your application and taste.

Ray, that's exactly what the headliner in my D1 looked like. While initially resistant, it grew on me.
I can't stand black headliners. A ton of new Jags and Rovers come from the factory with them. It seems played out at this point, much like black alloy wheels.
A black headliner wouldn't be that bad. As long as people want me to breakdown wheels n tires to send them out for black powder coating I'm good with that too.
Black interiors make the space feel closed in. Not what I'm looking for in an adventure focused vehicle.
I used bed liner for the, well, the bed of my 110. UPol Raptor is tintable and I highly recommend it. I've had it on my roll cage for about four years now and I think I found one tiny scratch somewhere recently.
Inside it hasn't fared as well, but that's not the fault of the UPol Raptor. I put Al's HNR under the bedliner, and it's too soft of a layer so the bedliner scratches off due to the Al's HNR under it.

More on Al's HNR: I used it extensively on my floor and bulkhead, and I don't think it actually did anything. I know other people have raved about it, but I wouldn't use it again.

I actually find that the black headliner is useful in the same way that the expo-licious hood blackout is; it reduces things the eye focuses on. The contrast is useful. That could all be made up, but that has been my seat of the pants experience.
I don't particularly notice feeling closed in...but I'm short so that may explain it too.

I had an Alfa Romeo years back and the sunvisors were black on the back side which helped a lot with glare when they were down, so that makes sense to me.

Rescued original fabric, washed it, got a 3mm thick sponge sheet and attached fabric at it with Scotch spray keeping it stretched. Cleaned carton base and Scotch spray attached headliner again. It remained as factory.
The sponge that rotted had function of absorbing noise
