I did a search first, but did not see that this has been addressed in the past…
I’m in kind of a tough spot and weighing my options right now on what to do with my aluminum floor panels. I need to get this done soon so that I can then run my hoses and flip the chassis back over. I was going to roll my floor panels with black bedliner, but everything that I see states to apply in a well ventilated area – even the low VOC ones. I live in NE Ohio and do not have access to a climate-controlled (70deg) AND well ventilated area in order to apply. It’s freaking wintertime, so I either apply in a climate-controlled outbuilding and breathe harmful vapors, or I open the doors and apply in much colder temps than stated. Should I just leave them in bare aluminum and add non-slip, adhesive-backed pads? Is that going to look like crap? And is the aluminum for these panels protected in any way with clearcoat, or something? Do I need to worry about that, since they are aluminum and not steel?
