the spray or roll on bonds to the paint, and can be a pain in the butt to get back off.  Especially if you do it the right way and scuff up your paint before you apply. 

I had a cheap setup done in my truck (bought it like that), they just sprayed right on with no prep.  Lightly scuffing up your clear coat with a 3000 grit or higher sand paper makes the spray bond a lot better, and less chances of it peeling off.

professional installers should pull all your bolts, bed hooks, and any other accessories in your bed and plug and mark your holes.  That way once the liner is on, they just remove the plugs and reinstall all your stuff. 

You have to watch some places, they won't remove your bed bolts, and it's a PITA to cut up the liner to get to them.  Actually PITA doesn't even cover how hard it is.  I've got a few words in mind for the liner on bolts and their sprayers, but I can't say them here.  Of course a simple solution as asking them what all they do can prevent major headaches later on.
