Undercoat? - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Rust proofing on a brand new car can be great depending on where you live, as people have said. Beware of trying to add it later (period of years I mean)though because adding the undercoat on top of improperly treated surface, for example dirty, oily or rusted, will make it not adhere well and the rust can get worse. Vervepipes= Seen it happen

Edit: hehe, forgot I was in "search", not "new posts", oh well, re-hashed from the grave it is!

on a down side... the yaris does not have any paint under... just a thin primer. I'm sure i did not go wrong with a great layer of undercoating.

here are the pics, before and after..

yeah but that's only the wheel wells. the whole under car needs some protection... beside the primer...
