Wrap used on G-Loomis Surf Rods

Does anyone have information on the wrap that G-Loomis uses for their 12' Surf SU1448 rods? It feels like that rhino liner material they spray inside of truck beds to me. Has a rough texture feel, I suspect its a wrap of some sort, dont know!

Thanks for all replys

Thanks For the replys Bruce, Bob.

This is a on one of the surf rods I saw at this place in Evansville In. as I was going home over Thanksgiving that sell G-Loomis. I bet they had every G-Loomis rod that they make. It appears that G-Loomis dont make all of their blanks available that they use on some of their own rods. I havnt worked on a G-Loomis blank yet, but I look forward to, and wanted to include this butt wrap material that they are using on the surf rods.
