I've been putting in new floors/rockers/outriggers in my bus. I want to coat the inside floor and undercarriage with a good duriable coating. I was thinking maybe a rhino line inside and an industrial paint for the undercarriage. I would like something that will really seal it and provide some sound deadening perhaps. I also don't want a rubberized coating. And I'd like to do Red for the undercarriage if possible
Any ideas? Recommendations

I'm a big fan of the POR15 products. Used them on a bunch of projects, and just finished a new pan with it as well. Relatively easy to use, but expensive if you use the marine clean and metal ready.
Not sure on the color choices, I only use gloss black, semi-gloss black and silver.

I have had nothing but excellent results with POR15 as well.
Just make sure that all the pain is removed, and any dirt or rust dust etc. The product really likes to be in contact with bare metal.
I brushed on 3 coats on my beetle pan almost 7 years ago, and it still looks new (if fact it looks sprayed on). No chips, nothing.
I did not use metal ready but I wipe the surfaces with gun wash.
Another example is the bottom of my gastank. This stuff is bullet roof.
No I don't work for POR15... ;) but you will not be disapointed.

Thanks guys...where is the best place to buy it in the lower mainland?

Probably Lordco.
You've got two days left on the April Sale. I know gloss black and semi-gloss black are on-sale, not sure about what else.
