Rhino is often advertised as going on up to 1/4" thick. Key words: "up to".
In my applications, it never really approached that, even on the flat floor.
Closer to 1/8" is more like it, and quite adequate. (The herculiner was even
thinner) Most of the wear & tear has been on the rear tub floor and inner
sides of the wheelboxes. I suppose one could ask that those areas be
thickened up a bit. Everywhere else has withstood chains, hi-lift, crates,
etc. without showing wear. The rear area does get stuff slid in and out, and
it doesn't look as new as elsewhere. I learned to keep a sheet of 1/4"
plywood on the floor for sliding stuff in and out.
I'll admit that I was lazy and had them spray over the floor of the rear
tub, rivets and all. Damage/repair to a section of that floor may occur, but
the risk is low and I took it. I did remove all other floor boards, though.
I wouldn't contemplate spraying with them in place. The seat box? I did it
in place as a few deft strokes with an Acme craft knife would separate the
seat box from the body.
I'm often a twit...
