Interior rebuild question.
So I have the carpet, seats, and headliner all pulled out of my 97 xj. I use it mainly for mud (not my daily driver). I wheel it with no doors so the inside always gets real nasty and filled with water. I'm drilling a few more drain holes and I want to coat the inside with something, I just don't know what would work the best. Rhino line? Line X? Rattle can? Something else? What do y'all think?
Thanks
Thanks

All good products it just depends on how much prep your willing to do and the price for the product being applied, seems everything ends up being cost vs. work lol.
One thing to consider is the heat from the floor in the transfer case/exhaust areas but a little planning will help on those. I only have experience with one commercially applied product (Rhino Liner) that I used in the bed and on the floors of 2 4x4 PU's that I used on the farm. It was very durable and washed out on the floors good always dirty mud, cow manure, dirt, rocks.
Only place it was ever damaged was in the bed when a goose neck trailer feel from the hitch when loaded with 14 large round bales of hay.

My father did a roll in bed liner in his YJ a few years ago. It has held up well and looks good. Not sure the brand, he bought it at a local auto parts store.

Monstaliner is on my wish list. I Don't want to put carpet back in mine. Also I have a roof of one of my Cherokees to do. The paint burned off in a fairly large section and I want to try and monstaline the whole section between the roof rack side rails.
I've done a lot of research and this seems to be one of the easier to apply, has great uv resistance and is pricey but not stupid expensive. Also seems very durable.
