Removing bed liner

In my experience, bedliner isn't going to peel off. In fact, it may require chemical stripper to remove it because it's going to load up sandpaper real fast. I just painted a riser in Plasti-dip spray a day or two ago and can assure you that it will be far less durable but much more easily removed. It tends to wear most rapidly on sharp edges. I've shot it about 200 times with feather-fletched arrows and the original riser finish is already showing through at the back edge of the riser shelf just from the feathers contacting it.

Where I really like the Plasti-dip is on limbs used for hunting. I applied four coats to produce a nice matte finish that provides a certain amount of protection from small scratches in the brush. While the finish wears through at the edges of the limbs, it isn't objectionable looking. Best of all, at the end of the season you just use your thumbnail to peel it off with no detrimental effect to the original finish. I painted my limbs at the beginning of the season and it was still serviceable 3.5 months later. Other benefits include no change in limb performance and repels beggar's lice or other stickers.

Update on my Plasti-dip sprayed riser. The riser got one fairly heavy coat of the stuff simply because I knew I didn't have enough material on hand for multiple coats. About 3 shooting sessions later, the stuff is already peeling at the front of the grip where I rest my fingers. I doubt that more coats would have significantly increased durability unless I layed the stuff on super stick, i.e. a dozen coats or more. The spray-on product may not be the most durable form. The stuff used to actually dip tool handles may afford the needed durability but I haven't figured out how to apply the stuff to a 25" riser and have it come out looking good. Maybe it could be brushed on? The really nice thing about the spray is that my riser will be restored to the original finish in fairly short order.
