Bedliner Options

[gfreeze1025]

I have searched the forums and nothing really answers the question I have.

I am in the middle of a restore on my 71 Blazer and just stripped out the carpet and padding (which was glued down = )..


I plan on dynamatting ( or some other alternative) and new carpet, but prior to that I want line the bed with "something" to help prevent rust etc. It will cover from the firewall to the tailgate. Also, I need a DIY option.

Blazer stripped out..


The question what should I use? I looked at POR15, Herculiner, Rust-Oleum Truck Bed Coating, and just plain old primer and paint.

I don't really care about what it looks like or UV protection as I will be covering it up with carpet and dynamat. It just needs to protect/seal the cab/bed against rust. (ie rain when the top is down)

Any thoughts/ideas will be appreciated

Thanks
