rubber interior trim
Hello to all

Here I would like some information to redo the interior of my 90 puma. I don't have much of a budget, I thought about taking a rubber roller and making cuts in it. Who has already done this and what results did it give?

Yes, works a treat. Used Trim-Fix contact adhesive to stick it down. The 3mm roll is much bette than the 2mm but obviously heavier.

I've got a chequer plate design roll in my loadspace. It's very hard wearing and is more easily hoovered/brushed/wiped out than carpet. Very easy to cut round obstructions like cargo rail or handles. I'd certainly consider it for other floors, seat boxes etc. It's not so good bent round or into corners, and cutting two edges to meet at a corner isn't hugely satisfactory either.

Not my 110 but the back of my old Navara crew cab was lined in it when I took the rear seats out.
You can get the ‘coin’ type with raised dots rather than chequer plate style. It doesn’t hold on to dirt as much as the grooves in the chequer type so easier to keep clean if that’s an issue.

I’ve got this on top of the factory carpet.

Good all round.

Easy enough to clean in the vehicle and you can just lift it out and hose it if you wish.

Carpet underneath looks like new.

I did the back floor of my 110 with the coin type shown in your picture, this I found to be very good, but moderately stiff. I used the ribbed type as floor mats in the front as it's more flexible, but holds dirt more. I think it was all 3mm. For the rest of the surface's I used 6mm self adhesive closed cell foam and covered it with self adhesive four way stretch carpet.

Just ordered a big sheet 2mX2m of 5bar black rubber to cover the load area in my utility. Gone for 5mm thick as will deaden the panels and noise. Also same price as the 3mm and 4mm

I put the rubber roll in a photo to give you an idea, after that there are several choices of patterns, for example smooth, ribbed, hammered, orange peel effect. the back part should not be too complicated in terms of cutting. I have to do the front at the seats and also at the gearbox tunnel and also do the front floor mats at the feet. I'm looking for photos of the front part made with rubber rollers

I used it in the back of my 90, along with carpet on appropriate surfaces. Ribbed for my pleasure.

3mm for the ribbed stuff on the wheel arches. The smooth mat on the floor is off an old rock crusher conveyor and is about 12mm thick.

I used Wrights Off Road matting to line the rear of my 110. Works really well and make the truck much quieter.

Good morning
To fix the rubber did you use glue or just put it?

For the floors I just placed it down, it's dense stuff and stays in place. For the vertical surfaces, I used contact adhesive.
