Can i ask how did u clean up the rust before you sprayed the undercoating? Did you get under there and scrub it w a solution or anything special, and what spray did u use, how long is thr dry time and do i need to be cautious for certain parts underneath?
Thanks

I grew up in Canada so I know ALL about undercoating. I don't even know where you'd get it done in Atlanta...heck, I don't think anybody here even knows what undercoating is. Back in the day it was my Dad's annual ritual.
I think undercoating is always a good idea. My current vehicle (Nissan Pathfinder...meh) has two rusted-out running boards. Not sure if undercoating would have prevented that, but it would have helped.

Mine was Undercoated when it was new back in 02. My undercarriage still looks brand new. Just like YeeHaw's. If you touch it is got a tough wax feel to it.

I complained to my dealer and when he got sick of talking to me he scheduled a meeting with the Hummer rep. Well never had the meeting but they paid to take my 05 to Ziebart. They applied some rust eliminator and then completlt undercoated it. This just happend last week. Cost them $320.00. Looks good now.
