Default Rhino liner on inside

Well, I'm in the process of bringing back my '78 Cherokee to running condition. One of the options is when I take out the seats and clean up/patch a coulple of small holes in the floor boards is using a spray on bed liner instead of the mats. Sounds good, and I think it would be easy to clean out. Has anybody tried this? If so, is there anything I need to watch? Which brand spray/paint on is best?

Thanks

Not to hi-jack the thread, but I've heard when doing this you will have a lot more road noise in the cabin. Is this true? Could something like dynamat or another sound deadening material be applied first, then bed lined over?

I just got done using a dura coat bet liner in th interior, it worked very well. But if you want it to be the "pro-bullet proor' like rhino liner, youll need to hot spray it in with many coats. I did three coats and it will come of if I were to try really hard with my fingernails. But the hot spray I had done by the shop wont even come off with a hammer and a screwdriver. Roll on looks good and make sure you tape off all your edges to make it look good in the back. Good Luck

Hey thanks guys......Your answers raise more questions...How thick is this stuff? I'm wondering this because I'll have to use a paint brush for most of the application since most of the flooring isn't very flat and it seems a brush is the best way and also to apply it in those tight areas. What kind of paint brush do you recommend?
Can I get a sound deadening paint in colors? And, again, is there one brand that's better?

Thanks again
