Boeshield and SRR are nice products. Neither are perfect of course (my tests have been in extremely harsh conditions), but about the best available as far as I know. I would recommend NOT undercoating the car.

I use the boeshield in marine applications and nothing comes close to lasting durable protection.

Congrats on the 10/10 Z you just got.

I think that the mods deleted the thread because people like me were voicing their opinions on the car when the classified section is not to be used as such. Every time someone says something it kicks the add back to the top which makes it unfair to the other sellers.

Back to your questions. I would leave it. Just clean it up as best you can. Keeping it stock is best IMO.

Good call to have it inspected by Jerry. Again nice car. Lets see some new pics of it in your garage or driveway.

I use boesheild rustfree. spray on and set a few mins. then use a gray or white scuff pad to help if needed. Then use a self-etch primer(spray can) and then a semi gloss paint. Then body shop suppliers have a blending agent in a spray can. Spray your paint, then use the blending agent to melt it into the existing finish. Makes spot in finishes almost disapear. It works good for spot blending in paints on the top side also. Roger

By the way, after I did the SafestRustRemover process, I sprayed the areas with Boshield to keep them from re-rusting.

Everything I spray with Boeshield ends up rusting anyway. What the heck am I doing wrong?

Boeshield is a nice product, but it's neither permanent nor bulletproof.

This was an extreme test/experiment under very harsh conditions. Both parts prepped exactly the same. One was treated with Boeshield (hint: it wasn't the distributor hold down clamp)

After one month, both held up pretty well considering:



After 5 months of rigorous winter weather:
