Gene:

I tried the stick-down tiles once...BIG mistake.

A)  They were EXTREMELY heavy, adding a lot of weight to the trailer.

B)  They didn't stay stuck as with moisture and oils, and cleaning, they 
started coming up and looked horrible.

Having done several trailer floors now, my best recommendation is the 
latex-based expoxy garage floor paint that you can buy at Home Depot.  It 
comes in a large white plastic bucket and is available in several standard 
colors, or can be mixed to match a specific color.  It works great, is easy 
to apply, isn't expensive, and doesn't come up.  You can also add a clear 
coat over it, which makes it a bit slippery, but easy to  clean (just a light 
spray of Brake Kleen, and a damp mop makes it look like new, even after a 
Cortina has marked it with oil, tranny fluid, and brake fluid).

Regards,
Myles
