In Reply to: OT- Trailer floor rubber mats posted by Brent in IA on May 15, 2005 at 20:35:05:
Spray-on bed liner might be fine for the floor but DO NOT put any on the walls. I know a fellow who bought a new horse trailer and had rhino lining put on the inside walls and floor. The first time he used it, he went to MO, bought a mule, and before he got home, the lining had pulled all the hair off the poor animal leaving it a bloody mess. As a side note, we were looking for a stock trailer a month ago and my wife found a fairly new aluminum trailer sitting in this guys yard. He raises horses and was trying to sell this trailer and she insisted I call him on it. Normally they are too expensive for my taste but reluctantly, I called him up. I was surprised when he said $1800 and then I asked him if he sprayed bed liner on the inside? He sheepishly replied, "Yes" in a low voice and as far as I know, he hadn't sold it yet. For a good trailer floor, we keep ours clean and wash it regularly. Since it is a horse trailer, use a rubber mat but occasionally pull it out to wash the manure out as to prevent rust. Our own mix that works well for us is 3 parts boiled linseed oil with 1 part turpentine. We roll it on our floors with a harry paint roller, let it dry real good, then put your mat back in. We do this annually and it works fine. Just my 3 cents worth.

Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
