Anybody ever did this? Had to rip my carpet up cause my truck flooded and thinking about trying to rhino line it ( or that off brand stuff from advance auto). Just a thought, i got new carpet in already that i ordered but just had a wild idea. Surely it wouldnt stink to bad for a while would it?

Well i owe 1000 bucks on it and dont plan on getting rid of it. its an 05 chevy colorado with less than 100k so hopefully it will last me a longggggggg time. the deggom brake light on the cab was leaking and i didnt know it until it flooded the whole passenger side.

It will stink to high heavan when it gets hot. New carpet will do the trick, but you only need to pull up the old carpet, dry it out (carpet and floor board) and replace the padding (jute) as long as you have the leak fixed.
Waste of money to put Rhino Lining on the inside, as that doesn't address the problem. Fix the leak first and repair the damage. Anything else is a waste of money.

got the leak fixed, and ordered the carpet off JCWhitney.com. Its been in 2 weeks just havent put it in. That old carpet was to far gone. i left my truck sitting out in this rain instead of putting it in the garage during all this 20" of rain we had and by the time i found something was leaking i had water sloshing from front to back when i would hit the brakes.

Have Rhino Lined inside of Jeeps and a couple Suzuki Samiri's. Dont know if I would want to do it in a cab that was almost water tight...on hot days like was said...wow! Check rubber mat from Dealer, my 11 Work Truck has that and I really like it. I added a couple deep lipped rubber mats and the rubber floor mat still looks new.
