Floor Covering

I have a 89 reg cab that is going to be my trail rig. I tore the interior out and starting to put it back together. I don't really want to put a floor mat back in the truck. I was thinking on painting it or rhino line it. I was wondering what kind of paint to use or any ideas. I have seen that POR offers some durable paint. I don't know what to use any suggestions. Thanks

You might want to look into Gator Guard epoxy bedliner. We have had quite a few customers that are into offroading, use this on the interior floors of their vehicles, and they love it. This product is durable and it is easy to apply - brush it on or roll it on.

Yea, you'll love not having a floor mat anymore, I got rid of mine, cuz I had to patch up the floor because it was rotted, and I just put bed liner in it......IT IS AWESOME!, and cleaning it is easy, just open the doors, and get the hose out!

I used bedliner in mine too. I like it, but it is a little noisier. Truly easy for cleanup, though.

I sprayed this bedliner called rattleguard on my floorboard. It's a 2 part epoxy type of bedliner that you can buy off of e-bay. Stuff is super tuff! I haven't driven my pickup much since I did it, but it's definately noisier... especially with the 7.3L diesel under the hood.

I used Gator gaurd in my Bronco and it's been great. I can hose it out to clean it up and its taken a beating. Still holding up.
