Painted The Inside of My Cargo Box

The walls of my cargo box are plywood and were previously unfinished, and I just got tired of looking at all of that plywood, so I decided to paint it. I went with a two-tone, white above the top E-Track and gray below it. In addition to making the inside of the truck look a LOT sharper, the white paint makes the lights inside the box appear brighter and the inside of the truck appear larger.

I left the floor unpainted, but I did sand and seal it with Thompson's.

Great...it's a truck...it shouldn't look like the inside of a rail car...I like the white for extra reflectivity and added brightness...should work very well with a translucent top...

Cool.
I bought some of that long rope lighting for the inside. The stuff works great at night. Most of the boxes we have only have one or two headliner lights. They are pretty much worthless. Hooked it right into the headliner light plug. I forget the electrical draw but it is very low. Your interior painting will look good no matter what time of day.:)
