I have a trailer I bought used and they had a rhino line done to it. Very slippery especially on the drop down door. Kind of sucks actually. Depending what you are going to do with the trailer would probably dictate a direction to go. Myself, not sure I would Rhino line another. I have high end epoxy floors in my shop and would maybe look at that with a silica sand added for non skid.

If those are your choices of DYI product use Herculiner. Do more than one coat.

The others are just paint that dries bumpy to look tough.

DO NOT USE RUSTOLEUM. Both grades of their bed liner are absolute junk. They peel and dissolve with any solvent (delim), creating tar that sticks to everything.

I painted plywood a few days ago with Seal Krete Epoxy-Seal. It's intended for concrete garage floors, but should work well on sealed wood. Supposed to be three times tougher than floor paint. You can add non-skid sand, but I don't want to sand my equipment.

I also did a van floor with Duplacolor bed liner. Not very durable.

I would paint walls and floor of that trailer with multiple coats of epoxy. Seal Krete comes in gray and tintable white. Thirty-some bux/gal at Lowes.

I put a really nice dark grey indoor/ outdoor carpet on the floor of my box truck. Always looks great and easy cheesy to clean.

I had a really nice one that I bought new and rhino lined. Yeah, it got stolen not too long ago.

Line-X would be my first choice too Steve, but J-Riz was asking about the DYI products.

We've used Herculiner on metal in places where epoxy falls off; floor grates, the underside of our rug washer... it's been perfect.
