Fellow Series owners-I am thinking about using that rhino covering(http://www.rhinolinings.co.za/) for inside my vehicle in the foot wells. I have water that gets in around there and some rust spots developing(imagine that). I also am thinking about protecting it from the outside too but I am wondering if anyone has done this before and what will it do to the rust areas? |

I found this about the stuff;
Sprayed-on Rhino Lining polyurethane, bonds directly to the truck bed to form permanent, watertight/airtight protection against rust and corrosion. Water cannot penetrate beneath the lining. Rhino's polyurethane coating provides a thick layer of protection. The flexible, attractive surface reduces load slippage.
Rhino Linings is a solvent-free, polyurethane coating which is resistant to fuels, fertilizers, and most corrosive chemicals. Unlike paint, Rhino Linings' polyurethane provides an industrial-grade protective lining. The polyurethane provides a permanent protective surface inside or out for many vehicle applications including, pick-ups, trailers, vans, and open-air off-roaders. |

I thought a lot about rhino-lining the inside of my truck, but then I was able to get some RRC Rubber mats with insulation on them (thanks RCH!). They are a lot easier on your feet and the insulation helps with comfort (mainly with feet). They are also very easy to clean and cheaper.
FWIW...

Thomas: lots of different type of 4x4's use these products for truck beds, cab interiors etc... It seems to work pretty well. Have a look at www.tlc4x4.com: some of their modified trucks have the liner in the beds etc... I personally think it makes the bed too slippery, letting tools, ice chests, pelican cases slide about too easily, even with straps.
Also, I have always been curious about their claim that the polyurethane coating bonds so tightly that there is no way for water to get inbetween: my experience with old cars is that water and air tend to get everywhere, and rust follows.
Good luck, David Woo |

FWIW, I pulled the carpet and Rhinolined the interior of my Disco and am very, very happy with it. No major problems, and it beats cleaning mud out of the carpet. |

Hey Max-Where do you get the RRC rubber mats? |
