herculining the tub

(1/3) > >>

reptile610:
i know nearly everybody has removed their carpet and lined there tub with something, whats the best bang for your buck product?

i have the hard top and full doors and because i have no place to put them i hardly take them off, should i even bother with it? does it make it hotter/louder in the cabin with the carpet gone?

crawler 5307:
makes it hotter and louder and the liner are very abraisive have herculiner in my truck would not do again but is very strong though good luck rich ???

reptile610:
thats what i was afraid of because the exhaust runs right under the passenger seat. don't want it to be hotter than normal (hawaiian weather is 80 year around) and with the exhaust being right there i figured it'd be alot louder. not going to be running without a top anytime soon so this might be a project to push off.

Try POR 15 paint. I no its pricy paint but tough as nails & a little goes a long way. It would be a lot of work tho because you would have to scuff everything the paint tuches so it will stick good. You also need to buy the Marine wash & Metel Ready to do it right. I painted all my skid plates with this stuff. Just brushed it on. It was 40 degrees in my garage when I did it so when it dryed you could still see some light brush strokes but in warmer temps it should smooth out like glass. You can also use a roller or spray it on if you have a spray gun.

Also another idea is Rhino Lining. I think you need a special spray gun for this but Im not really shure. The Rhino Lining is much thicker than the Herulining (almost like rubber) & feel it will inulate better from your hot exhaust. I had a friend do this on my old 94 Cherokee & the jeep was much quieter inside. You can also get it in several colors. I think the POR15 comes in different colors also.

I think you should go with the Rhino Lining but there might be many other options out there so use the internet & you might be supprised whats out there. Do your reserch & maby call the company's that make the paint & let them know what you want to use it for & see what they say.  Hope this helps you & good luck.  Enjoy Hawaii. 8) Wish I was there dammit!!!!!

this stuff is spray in and is made just for reducing sound and heat so i would say it would work pretty good, only issue would be durability but IMHO i think it would work great.
