We do spray in liners all the time in Jeeps, remember if it can be unbolted unbolt it. remove anything that can be removed or may need to be removed at a later time. This stuff does not like to be removed at a later time. Make sure you sand the tub well other wise it will not stick well and will peal at a later time. Herculiner says that you can get away scuffing the tub with a scotch brite pad. I don't recommend this. Use 80 grit sand paper and sand the tub. The more time you spend preping this the longer it will last. When you have sanded everything wipe it out with a paint prep cleaner or a clear coat reducer, use 2 clothes one wipes with the cleaner on it and the other follows behind and dries. It's the second cloth that actually cleans the metal. Apply the liner and don't park it in the sun. Keep it dry for 24 hours and try not to put anything insde of it for 72 hours, thats how long it takes for it to fully cure.
Good luck
