Undercoating from factory
 
What the best product/method to duplicate the factory undercoating in the wheel wells?

1) 3M 08864 Body Schutz Rubberized Coating Black
2) 3M 08997 Body Schutz™ Applicator Gun
3) Masking
4) Practice

Maybe NOT the Best but WAY better than ANYTHING out of a spray can.

I used Raptor truck bed liner and their adjustable nozzle shutz gun. I chose the truck bed liner for the durability and ease of cleaning and the gun made it easy to create the surface texture I wanted. Not sure how it'll hold up...time will tell.

I saw an ad for this product just the other day and thought it would work well for undercoating. Sprays on and cleans up with water.

Yes definitely share pic's please.

I have used the 3M body schutz and thought it was harder than the original undercoating. I will say that my Chevelle is a daily driver and I have not noticed any flaking off.

I would really like to use the original formula of the brand name Rhino Liner bed liner, if I had a shop near me. That stuff wears great and had the feel and look of the factory applied undercoating, although it doesnt scrape off as easily.

Steve, if my 70 comes out half as good as yours, I will be happy. Awesome detail work!
