Rhino lining works great on the inside of a box to totally seal it.

Yes the same stuff as bedliner. 1/8" is tons. It does nothing for structural intergrity of the box though. It is only to make it air and waterproof. Glassing = $, time and if you have not done it before, mistakes that you will learn from.
