Default What to do with my floors?

Guys getting my cars floors blasted this week end and was wondering what r u guys painting them with? The floors will be epoxy primed following the blasting. Should I raptor line them or just paint over the epoxy? Car will be a driver not a show piece. Thanks in advance.
Steve

Hi Steve, I would epoxy the floors and raptor. Make sure you get yourself one of those cheap paint suits and gloves and plently of tape and a roll of automotive plastic. Joe

Joe how does the finish look like? Dont want it to look like im trying to hide something. Just want it to look neat and tidy but durable at the same time.

Under the car or inside the car? Under the car you can paint or use bed liner. If its in the car I would just leave it epoxy. No point in painting it if nobody is going to see it. Just Dynamat it.

Steve I would recommend the U-pol Raptor too. I did a members car on here (JMitch19) a few weeks back after a mini-tub install. It looks awesome not super thick looking just enough for a little forgiveness and durability.
