Undercoating
 
Wondering if anyone has pulled their carpet out of their Jeep to spray or roll on bedliner to cover the entire floor and cargo area. What product did you like? Did it go on easy?
I know on any Jeeps I had before the carpet holds quite a bit of moisture and eventually the insides will look pretty bad after a few years. Not sure if I will get the thicker stuff and run without carpet all together. Likely the only thing I would notice running without carpet is the change in road noise above 80 km/h. Any insight on this would be helpful, thanks.

I ran with my carpet until the stink became unbearable LOL. I tore up the carpet, primed the floor and used Rocker Guard to temporarily get me by until I could get it sprayed professionally. Thing is though that was almost 2 years ago! The rocker guard has held up better than I thought it would and is still stuck to the floor without any problems thus far. I used a good quality self etching primer and regular black rubberized Can Tire rocker guard, paintable kind not the tar crap.

I'm guessing the rubberized one in the can would be the best to start with. I'm going to start with that too until I get it done with a spray type. How many cans did you end up using and did you do all the way to the rear door?

my ZJ ended up using just over 3 cans on the inside, and 5 cans underneath (got above tranny, tcase and gas tank aswell)

only drove the jeep once since the spray and it seemed much quieter, didn't have to turn up the stereo as loud to drown out the tires...

I only did the driver and front passenger areas seeing how that was the high use area, I only think I used 1 can, and then touched it up with another 1/2 can.

Peels? I haven't had a problem at all, Maybe its because I sprayed it with flat black primer between coats.

yeah some of the sprays require you to do more prep work, such as scuffing of the surface... this is why i glance at the instructions and ignore the ones that require more work :alcoholic:
