kirks5oh Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 guys, my brother just bought a new car, and is looking to get it undercoated. not some half-assed ziebart, or factory undercoating, he wants something thorough. any places do this kind of work?? he's also having some issues with the suspension on his ford excape--clunking, slooppiness that sounds like a bushing issue. whee should he take it so that he doesn't get raped--he's not a car guy like me, but he's not exactly stupid either. thanks kirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 is that even necessary anymore? I mean most cars if decently cared for don't pop rust like the late 70's and early 80's stuff. curious..... guys, my brother just bought a new car, and is looking to get it undercoated. not some half-assed ziebart, or factory undercoating, he wants something thorough. any places do this kind of work?? he's also having some issues with the suspension on his ford excape--clunking, slooppiness that sounds like a bushing issue. whee should he take it so that he doesn't get raped--he's not a car guy like me, but he's not exactly stupid either. thanks kirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Automotive Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 I spray line-x, actaully next months specail....I wouldnt recommend it for undercoating though. Kirk if the car is new I wouldnt worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 what's line-x?? i haven't undercoated any of my cars recently, because i've lived in columbus. when i lived near the snowbelt in cleveland, we always had our cars undercoated--but that was in the '80's and '90's. yeah, my brother is buying the car new, and he will certainly have it for less than 10 years--probably only 5-7 years at most. its a ford fusion by the way, nothing too interesting. just a daily driver for his wife.

Then dont worry about it. What you can do though in the winter regularly is take through a car wash with underbody spray if you don't want to do it yourself. This will wash all of the salt off.
