Re: Carpet or Vinyl Floor Cover

In my opinion, and this is just my own experiance, I say that a rubber/vinyl floor cover would be better for rust. I have found that the carpet simply holds the moisture longer and is harder to dry out. Assuming that you can easily remove the rubber/vinyl when wet to dry.

Now I prefer carpet myself for sound deadening and comfort but since you said that neither are a factor for you, I would go with a decent rubber/vinyl, something that is easy to remove, wash out, and dry. Combined with a good rust converter, primer, and sealer underneath would be the best bet. Again just my opinion. I have no studies or proof. Just what I observed with my own cars.
