The problem with undercoating is it acts like bowl that holds all the corrosive
material you will pickup on the road. Your only hope is full rinsing after
every drive in challenging conditions. You chances of hermetically sealing
your car chassis is very unlikely. The places that will be

own shultz gun and buy it by the 5 gallon pail. It is still expensive at
that size per liter but I can usually do 7-8 cars with it. David, you must
