Interior sealing

I recently did a resto on my car that I think the previous owner had partially flooded (lots of silty dirt and smell.) but no rust at all.
When I gutted the interior I cleaned it blew it down with compressed air and then sealed it with Duplicolor truck bed liner. I brushed it on then, used the spray can while it was still wet for the texture.
I paid attention to areas like the spare tire storage and the rear well.
Looks great, is tough, and helps deaden sound a bit. I did this just incase I had water issues later I wouldnt have to worry about rust forming..
Its like $8 per spray can and $20 per quart.

That looks great.

Almost a shame to put carpet in, lol.

I think I'll do the same when I put in my carpet and 4th Gen seats, dash, and console.

Although I'll already be doing so much tedious crap (cutting and fitting) I bet I'll never end up doing it. haha
