What did you use for trim on the floor, ceiling and top of carpet?
I reused the trim at bottom of wall/floor transition. Top of carpet I bought trim at home depot in the flooring dept. where I got the linoleum.

Do you glue the carpet on? If so, did you just use liquid nails?
Yes it is carpet glue that comes in 2-3gal buckets. Apply glue to area with notched trowel, then I would stick the carpet on and staple the top edge to prevent any movement while glue sets up. Apply trim.

I aslo wondered if there wouldnt be some paint that I could use on the floors that would work or what about something like Rhino lining? Just thinking out loud.

I work for Rhino Linings and it is a bare to clean on an old floor if you have a oil leak. I personally would use the garage floor coating from Home Depot or U Coat It.

This was the reason I put the diamond plate down
on the floor, you dont have to worry if the paint
will stick and also the plate is easy to clean even
if you had a oil leak(blown engine)

I put some pics of mine... I ordered it with cabinets/work bench,,floor treatment,,and wall/ceiling covering... I like the flooring,,,kinda marble like stuff,,linoliem ?,,,wipes up easy,,, I have since put down some more diamond plating running into the trailer,,,for the tires so they dont chew up the flooring ,,, Also put in a S4000 winch,,and a I-Home(25$) on ebay,,,so i can hear the announcer,,,and play my ipod...

Looks like 69Charger and I have similar tastes. I too have a Warn S4000 winch, but I went ghetto with the old boombox. Anyway here is my new one..  My old trailer I carpeted the inside floors. Actually I think I prefer the carpet to the linoleum I currently have. I was going to go with rubber coin but have a couple of buddies who have had it come up. On my wood floor I used some Home Depot trim on the bottom and for any entry point we simply used some aluminum angle.
