Undercoating

[73 Mach 1 4 me]

I’m getting ready to have my car undercoated. If I use ziebart I’ve heard that it leads to suspicion that some bad work is covered up. I thought I would take pictures before the work is done to show that not to be the case. Does anyone have any suggestions besides ziebart?

I used bed liner for the bottom of mine and it has held up well.

I hear "Lizard Skin" is good too.
However, it's the same question, " what has been covered up?".
On my car, which is rust free, I chose NOT to do anything to the underside between the firewall and the rear bumper. I left it original and as is, other than a good cleaning.
If you must put something on it, perhaps a clear oil spray of some sort, but this will attract dirt and grime, so what's the answer?

Some before and after pics are all that you'll need. Don't have a recommendation on undercoating.

After removing all the old under coating and seeing how messy and that it retains moisture I am not gonna use anything besides some rust encapsulater platinum and then spray over it with black. Inside I will use lizard skin though.

I was gonna use that for the engine bay, I probably still should didn’t even think about it for the underside. I’m gonna have a million gallons of paint…

Personal opinion: any application will reduce sale-ability and therefore value. I keep mine in the garage and wash out the wheel wells when I wash the car. No bicycles or garbage cans allowed in my garage.

I've used POR15 with excellent results. It dries to a hard coating.

Used tinted Raptor liner on mine, came out nice.

Woahhhh not Rich or Dick or Richard....That looks really smart. And a chassis rotisseri in your garage; mate thats cool. If for no other reason than to push the project to the side of the garage so the wife can get her Rolls Royce inside.
