I have recently purchased a used 2 horse gooseneck slant fron a large trailer dealership. I asked them to re-line the walls. They used a material I haven't seen before. It is black, shiny and hard. I'm concerned it will crack, scratch...Does this sound familiar to anyone? They also put floor mats down and when I removed them to clean they had never cleaned the aluminum floor underneath! These are new mats and one already tore when I put it back in. Taking it back in this week to have other issues dealt with and wanted to know what your thoughts were on the wall lining.

I need a better description of what your wall lining is.

But   Rumber is a 1/4" thick sheet of recycled tires that is used as a wall lining a lot.  It is very tough.

Some companies spray the walls with a "Spray on Liner" like they use for truck beds.  It also holds up very well.

Location: North Salem, NY		Sounds like Rumber. Both of my trailers are lined with Rumber and it is almost bulletproof. Great stuff. I am getting ready to restore an old 6 horse van and I'm using Rumber to line the walls below the windows.
