Just yesterday I saw the bed of a truck that the owner had used "do it
yourself" spray in bed liner. He got the stuff from Walmart at $7 a can.
It actually didn't look bad where applied correctly, and was much thicker
than the rubberized undercoating. Upon seeing it, I was thinking to myself
that it would work great on the floorboards and inside the luggage
compartment. Might be worth looking into.
