What do you guys use. Just bought a new to me box with crappy wrinkled foam liners. Want something that looks proffesional at an affordable price. And places to buy would be helpful. Some pics of what you got. Thanks dudes.
 
I've been thinking of using Herculiner on my secondhand snap-on box
 
had a customer use spray bedliner in his, looks great, no problems. apparently northern sells large sheets of the rubber material that you use for the floor of a pickup as well, and looks pretty good, but trimming it neatly kind of sucks
 
Thought of either using some type of rubber flooring mat or some kind of spray in or roll on liner. If it got dirty you could just air it out or if it got real bad you could just take out the drawer and wash of the linex. It could also be applied in corners and up on sides of drawers so junk doesnt get trapped there. If I could find a roll of linex type material I would be happy and it would save me alot of time.
 
A guy at a shop i work at got a bunch of foam inserts from home depot and then traced out his tools onto em and cut em out so they when you open his toolbox it looks like it was a big package deal or something. Looks awesome and you never have to guess what goes where :D .
 
at one point, i was gonna do the fancy schmancy Snap On dual color cutout stuff... under color than a top color that you cut thru, so all the tool spots are highlighted...

wasn't cheap, and I figured i was always buying/adding to the box, i'd be screwing myself..

i just run the stock liners that came with my KRL... I bet that "cheesecloth" rubber stuff would work decent... heck, indoor/outdoor carpet would probably be decent as well..

Funny thing is I got some thin black cheap carpet in mine , that I like quite a lot.

Got the stuff that came with the tool box in our shop at the farm that I HATE!

They sell this in the drawer/shelf liner section at walmart.

In the box in my truck, this slides around....so i recently glued it down.

Ya we just talked about that, wasn't there another thread, same OP?
I think it's just fine for tool boxes, but ya I could see it sliding around in a truck box w/o adhesive. But again, so would all your tools on the rubber stuff. For that a foam cutout for each tool would be the only way to go, or keep it in it's original case, or a smaller toolbox within the truck box. Only use for the rubber stuff at walmart anyway would be to prevent scratches on the drawers, because even though it's rubberized, you open the drawer fast enough they still slide.
 
Sears, Lowes and home depot sell the cheese hole stuff. Want something extra rubberized. Best stuff I've found was at harbor frieght, solid and flat. Don't want dirt falling through, I want to be able to air my dirty drawers out without it settling in the bottom. Don't like foam, thats what was in there and it got all wrinkly in every drawer.
 
Got the Harpoor freight ones. And a few plastic trays, same ones sears had but one pack had 3 instead of 1 for more money.
