hey guys i ran into some leaks with my windows and my padding for my carpet is now molded and runed. so im just going to tear it out and go bare metal floor for a while. so what is the best thing to paint my floor with? it is my DD and i want some sort of bed liner just to keeep water from rusting the top of the floor.. so whats the best product and where can i get it and how much do i need? im going to paint front to back and keep the back seats and cargo area. so ima need to know how much to buy. thanks for any help.

 

Herculiner seems to hold up the best, it's about $90 dollers a gallon. One gallon will do the whole jeep with two good heavy coats, most Autozone stores sell it. As for running with out carpet, the floor pan gets very hot. I put some Home Depot indoor/outdoor carpet in my front foot wells to shield away some of the heat.....I would bet the floor gets hot enough to cook on!!!

 

thanks. have you done it just wondering and how did it turn out

 

Here in the land of ice, snow, and road salt; we have to be careful of what we find under the carpet, and what we don't find.
I go for a rust paint on most applications. Rhino Liner is also a popular tough coating brand. Future consideration, you can weld thru a rust paint, not so easy on the epoxy liner coatings.
Look under the carpet and ......BOO!

 

Yep, Kinda long.....But if you scroll through this thread i have pics of the finished floor.
