View Full Version : Anybody "rhino-line" their interior ( floorboards)?
My carpet is pretty nasty. Though of the sprayed in franchises to do my floors, rear cargo ect.
Anybody do this, and how does it look. Got to be better than my burgundy shag carpet...what where those Marketing guys thinking in 1988?
I guess I'll have to remove those power seats.
That doesn't look like fun.

I Line-Xed the interior of mine. In addition to protecting the metal it also quieted it down a lot and insulated it too.
:cool:

I took the carpeted cardboard off the bulkead in the rear. I replaced it with plywood, cut-out legitimate speaker ports then sprayed a bed liner in myself. I used the dura-color product from NAPA. I had used it once before in the bed of my Dodge Ram. I don't get the yeild, or build up of the pro stuff. But, I can buy more of the product and blend in any repairs it may reqire. Plus, I did it myself. And, well its a Grand Wagoneer not a Grand Cherokee. Heck, I like to get my hands dirty.

I have "Line-X ed" three J trucks throughout the interior and one CJ5. Because of the process being heated before application, it makes a smoother surface and bonds great if the metal is prepped correctly. It can also be color coded to the paint you are using. They just mix the correct paint in with the batch of line x material before it is heated. Truck beds look great and the cabs even better. I recommend it strongly.

Beiig in the "Business" I agree totally. If you can swing paying for it, a professional job is much better, whether it is Line-X, Armacoatings, Ameraguard, or Diamond Liner, it is the same THING! do not let them tell you otherwise, what little difference there is in chemical you would never tell the difference. I spray a Armacoatings, which was the originator of the heated spray, and there is no real difference in any of them. Rhinoliner is a BAD BAD word....completely different.
Stick with the hot spray, much better texture, much better produck, my wag will be sprayed before I put my new carpet in.
If you don't want to spend the cash on a liner, I would just remove any surface rust in your floor, seal it well with either a good primer or paint, then put the catpet with insulation back on it. My cost on the carpet is like 185 or so for the full kit.
The herculiner and stuff like that are nothing more than thick paint.

Hola,
I herculined the inside of my jeep for about 200 bucks. You can see pictures and a couple movies at: www.jasonthomasfrance.com. (http://www.jasonthomasfrance.com.)
I like herculiner. It took two gallons, but it still isn't as thick as I'd like. I'll probably clean it and do it again this spring.
Do some searches here, this has been discussed alot...

I "Durabaked" my interior. Its tan in color, although a bit more orange than my stock seats and plastic. Its still cool. Check 'em out at www.durabak.com (http://www.durabak.com)

Haven't done the interior yet, just the exterior :D in Durabak. I will be doing the interior in the next month or two once I get the floors repaired.

Another thread I think should be in Body Tech Archives smile.gif
I'm going to do this when the weather is warm enough. Used herculiner in the scrambler and am extremely pleased with the results.
