Re-Lining a Safe

[Guest go-vols]

I have a hand me down safe I was thinking of relining. I was going to use some indoor/outdoor carpet I picked up at Home Depot. I will attach the carpet with either spray adhesive or double sided tape.

Has anyone ever done this before? My main concern is that the carpet will hold in moisture.

Any other suggestions? Thanks guys.

What about using the fireproof material that they line safes with? I wouldn't use carpet. If it is bare metal, what about the truck bed liner spray?

The one I picked up was lined with felt. Might do that?

I'd avoid spray on bedliner stuff, it's usually pretty hard.

plus about the truck bed liner, im sure if your safe was in a fire it would melt and get all over your guns. I would stick to felt or some kind of carpet that wouldn't melt (no poly-"anything") as far as moisture use the desiccant bags/packs.

Line it with mirrors. The new tactical safe from browning is looks sweet. Makes it look huge inside.
