Most or them never harden completely and are oily so if you put a bag on the floor it could end up turning black. I don't remember what brand I used, but I know I bought it at Walmart in a gallon can. I put it on with paint brushes because I had read that using rollers makes it come out rougher for providing an anti-skid surface. I had to put a couple coats on it since paint brushes don't apply it real thick and I used figure 8 motions for applying so that I wouldn't get lines.

I too have never had much luck with undercoasting on the inside. I used it in my first YJ and it rubbed off pretty easy. I have used the Dupli-color truck bed liner for two differnt Jeeps and both times I was very happy with the reults. For a rougher texture you can use the roller designed to apply the coating, it kind of pulls up on the coating as it goes acrossed it and makes a non-slip texture. When applied by the spray cans it isn't as smooth as using a paint brush, but isn't as rough as using the roller.
From what I have found Walmart has it the cheapest, but thats not a big surprise :-X

undercoating was more of a joke for RJ. It doesn't harden, in the sun it melts and becomes sticky, and if you spill any kind of solvent on it, it "washes" off and becomes more of a sticky mess then when it gets hot. I tried to line a truck bed with it before. big waste of time.

Now that makes sense. I was trying to figure out why you would recommend undercoating inside a rig.
