LINE-X® PROTECTIVE COATINGS AND TRUCK COVERS USA PARTNER TO OFFER THE NEW AMERICAN X-BOX

SANTA ANA, Calif., June 10, 2009 – LINE-X® Franchise Development Company, one of the nation’s leading providers of spray-on protective coatings, is proud to announce the company is partnering with Truck Covers USA to introduce the new American X-Box. The American X-Box combines the top of the line tool box created by Truck Covers USA for their American Work Cover with the protection of LINE-X® XTRA, a spray-on urethane coating fortified with DuPont™ KEVLAR®.

The American Work Cover by Truck Covers USA unites a tool box and American Roll Cover creating a marriage of the highest product qualities. LINE-X XTRA permanently bonds to the heavy-duty galvanized sheet metal sectioned tool box providing a weather tight seal to protect against extreme heat, cold, moisture, abrasion and rust, while the increased tensile strength rating resists scratches, gouges and punctures. The American X-Box enhances the look of any work truck with convenience and ease of use, while providing protection and security like no other. A tool box and truck cover that really works!

“Our company is very excited to partner with Truck Covers USA in offering consumers the American X-Box, the highest quality tool box combined with the exceptional protection of LINE-X XTRA," said John Q. Wesley, CEO of LINE-X Franchise Development Company. “We are honored to partner with Truck Covers USA, who share the same values as LINE-X of offering superior products at competitive prices.” - more – LINE-X® and Truck Covers USA Introduce American X-Box Page 2

Truck Covers USA Introduces Inventive Truck Bed and Tool Box Lighting
Systems Utilize New Light-by-Wire Technology from 3M

Las Vegas, Nevada – October 30, 2007 – Truck Covers USA presents its new, innovative truck bed and tool box lighting systems called American Cargo Lights. Built using 3M’s new Light-by-Wire technology, the American Cargo Lights bring a high-end, custom feel to truck bed and tool box interiors while providing task lighting for these hard-to-light spaces.

The thermally managed lighting system features OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Golden DRAGON® with lens, surface-mounted on flat cable conductors. According to Nils Forssman, Truck Covers USA’s president, “the low-profile state-of-the-art lighting configuration will change cargo lighting forever.  Its flexible nature allows for mounting to rounded surfaces and folding into corners.  It is easy to install using 3M’s proven attachment tape technology.”            

3M’s Light-by-Wire technology has built-in reverse polarity protection, built-in lens and over-molds that fully protect all the LEDs. Truck Covers USA has put that technology to work for its American Cargo Lights, which provide a flush, trim-looking product that is less likely to be bumped and damaged due to its flat profile.

Truck Covers USA’s American Cargo Lights are available in separate three- and four-foot lengths, or in specially designed packages for full cargo lighting capabilities for truck beds and beyond. The basic package includes a convenient built-in on/off switch and two-way 3M jumper and power connectors. The American Cargo Lights can either be powered with a battery pack or hardwired into the truck’s electrical system.
