I am on a really short time line here. I will be friving the wag down to Bragg on Saturady for school. I pulled everything out of it this weekend and yanked the ratty old carpet. I was thinking about trying to get it durabak'ed before I leave.

My floor is in good shape. I did find a couple of really small surface rust spots, but otherwise it is still shiny paint. I know I need to rough it up a bit, but am trying to figure out how long it should take to put down a couple of coats. I dont want to order it if it will end up sitting in my garage for the next 15+ months..

I can put the seats back in and drive it as is if need be..

i left the J20 in it's regular parking spot, applied two coats of Durabak, and put the seat back in the next afternoon. this was a 70+ degree day, it dried pretty quick.

When I did my samurai, I pulled the interior, prepped the tub, and put down a few thick coats, then put it all back in in a day. There were a couple damp spots in the top coat, but it worked. If your already to go, start in the morning, and if its decently warm, you should be able to put seats in before bed.
