Default bedliner as a floorboard???

Just wondering if you, or anyone yall know have used a roll on or spray in bedliner material as your floor board. Im talking about taking out the seats, tapeing everything off, ripping out the old carpet, and rolling on or spraing in the bedliner material to be used as carpet. It seems to be stain resistant, easy to clean after spills or muddy, and able to jsut spray it out with a hose.

i guess what im asking is, is it worth the trouble or should i just buy a new replacment carpet.

thanks.

also if you have pics please include those.

Friend of mine did his Jeep CJ like that. Looks sharp and is easy to take care of. I think I would do that to my truck if I had a 4x4. Better than a rubber floor no water can sit under the mat.

it works well but then you have no sound-deadening material so it will be a little louder in your cab.

What he used did really well as a deadner. With his hardtop on it was pretty quiet. Built 304 with headers/sidepipes

There is an picture on the Herculiner web site of a vehicle that has had the floor sprayed (or rolled on) with the bed liner material.
