69 camaro floor undercoating

[vicious69]

Just installed the new floor and trunkpan in my 69 camaro Protouring project and now ready for undercoating. Any one got any ideas on some good coatings? I was thinking of a bedliner type product or maybe something like 3M body shotz but want it to look good and semi factory. Any ideas? Should I epoxy prime it first?

[vicious69]

Any ideas? Anybody.

Good article on comparision between sound deadener products:

There is also a good thread over at TC on the subject:

I personally have been thinking about the bed liner route for a couple of rasons 1) weight savings over dynomat 2)durability 3)no need to put carpet back down! easy to clean and will protect your floor boards for a long time. I know a lot of my friends have started going this route in their trucks for these reasons. I am not putting it on real thick though... weight is more important to me than having a perfectly quiet cabin

I used the following process:

1. Epoxy primer
2. Seam Sealer
3. Body Schotz
4. Dynmat

do a search for rattleguard
Ive used their bedliners several times now and have always been happy, they'll sell you everything needed. Ill be using it on the bottom of my 69, maybe do a tinted inside floor for a streetfighter look for a while.

Nice ride wickedbird, thanks for the ideas. I'm still torn wether I should spray the body shotz on the inside or outside of the floors. Want it to look sort of factory and not like it is a shiny bed liner coating on it.

Raptor coating is very nice to use. You buy it in kits with its own gun. It is a bedliner material that works great.

After media blasting with "Black Beauty" epoxy coated with House of Kolor KP2CF (zinc phosphate) and Ko-Seal II black, then 3M Paintable Rubberized Undercoat. Inside only used epoxy, no undercoating, jute padding with both sides aluminum foil, sealed with aluminum foil tape (not mylar), foil bubble wrap under headliner and package tray, too. Worked great, not too heavy, not real pretty though I could have painted the undercoating if I was that obsessed. Sounds, well, very high quality. You can carry a conversation at cruising speeds without having to raise your voice at all, while outside the 455 is bass thrumming.

Lizard skin inside might be an option. Expensive but lightweight & thin - comes in deadener and insulation. Sprays on, kinda has the weight and consistency of whipped cream, dries hard as a rock. Put carpet over it then do the stock stuff on the bottom (outside the car).

Just be careful where you get it...once this stuff dries sanding is a bit tough.

All this talk of undercoatings and not one mention of forum sponsors yet?

Far be it from me to speak for you. Go right ahead.

I used the roll on rhino linter from wal-mart. put a few coats on. I just replaced the driver front and rear floorpan with sheetmetal though and figured the strength of the rhinoliner would help hold it as one and keep it from any possible vibrations if there were any from using rivits.

not only is it a sound deadner but it is very very heat resistant, I wouldnt use anything else, look into it, Im suprised more people dont use it on this site.

Also unlike bedliner material, it wont catch fire, its bio friendly.....yes spray or roll on bed liner will catch fire and keep burning for a long time.
