been wanting to ask this question for awhile.

i want to coat/paint the inside as well as some other places like the wheel wells, engine compartment, etc. what are yall using that is easy to apply yourself, EXTREMELY RESILIENT to abuse, and wont break my pocket book. I'm not looking for anything pretty, just want to preserve/protect what i've got.
 
The best thing to use is truck bed coating there are a couple of do it your self kits you can get from the parts store. I'm sure someone will chim in on what they have used that has worked great for them.
 
I have heard a lot of good things about Durabak. That is what I will be using in my Grand Wagoneer.
 
I like Hamerrite myself . Goes on easy with roller or brush or spray can . I did my 74 with hurcliner and dont like it cause the mud stays in the roughness havta scrub with brush every time . the Hammerrite hoses off easy . you can get in a spray can also .

after a little searching of the web, that durabak does have some good reviews, does it wash off well? i see people even paint the whole jeep with the smooth surface stuff, wonder how that comes out and holds up? rooster, that looks clean, what i want mine to look like for sure
