i herculined my floorboards this past thursday and friday. it turned out pretty good. i had been wanting to do it for a while, and i sunk my truck last week and flooded my floorbpards, gotta love that mildue. so i figured i might as well go ahead and do it. i ripped the carpet it out, sanded the crap out of it, then washed the crap out of it. my gf got the brigh tidea of putting it on the plastic around the doors to, so i thought what the heck. don tdo it. bc once you chip it, it peels off very easy. road noice aint to bad now.

wtf is all over your dash man?

I've been thinking about doing this for some time now. How much did the herc run you and how much did you need for the entire project?

lol. I was just about to ask how it smells. I just lined my floor and it still stinks. Im thinking of buying 3 air fresheners to hang around the cab.

Looks really good. I've been thinkin about doin the same in my truck. How long did it take, including prep time?

iamsuperbleeder

that's what I was thinking, but it looks yellowish to me

but of coarse I AM color-blind

So it cut down on road noise a noticeable amount?

DupermanDave

For me it was a spur of the moment thing. I had some oil additive leak onto the carpet. So naturally, I had to pull it up to clean it. I had some cans of bed liner spray in the back. So while the carpet was pulled, I decided to unbolt my seats and spray the liner in. Didnt to much prep other than cleaning the floor. Took me about 2 hours. An extra hour because I ran out of spray and had to go shopping for more. But could be done in about an hour I'd say.

Go with the $50 herculiner kit. I used up about 5 cans of spray liner, which was about $7 a can. I still have to buy more to touch it up. In the end, it would be cheaper to get the $50 kit than a few cans.

I'd also suggest laying down some sound deadening material before you start spraying. The cab gets loud without the carpet.

iamsuperbleeder

yeah I bet it smells nice

I just undercoated my hood, and the smell from that junk was horrible

I'm kinda wandering what it's going to smell like once the hood's on, and the heat from the exhaust starts enveloping it

Is that why you painted a Toyota valve cover International Harvester Red?

iamsuperbleeder

hey, it's Chrystler red, get it right

Looks great! Take off your shifter plate and paint it black too. That'd make it look better

Junkers88

I so want to do this to my 4runner but haven't had the balls to gut it and start the process. Looks good.

Justinlhc

Hahaha.

I'm not sure how the hood is going to workout. It gets pretty toasty under there.

I am very curious if the smell stays. i want to do my cargo area but i also have a baby on the way. i heard the smell is pretty stout.

yoder519

yea im perdy pleased with the outcome. i bough tthe kit at tractor supply for $100. i did two coats and i still got about 3/4 of the gallon left. the smell id bout gone now. the road noice is kinda annoying, but i got used to the first day. to take the seat out, take teh carpet out, sand it, wash it and put on one coat id say i worked on it for bout 2 hours maybe 2 and a half. and yes thats mud on my dash lol, i dont have air so my windows are always down, forgot to roll em up haha. im thinking about painting the shifter plate blue. whatda yall think? kinda ricey i know but i think itd look good

Get Durabak. That stuff is 120$$ a gallon but works great. I did the floor of my old F250 and just used the rest to put 1 coat on my yotas bed. Trust me. Its worth the extra money becuse it will last. And you can get it in a ton of different colors.
