Seeing as you are currently doing yours, I was hoping you could tell me what you should put on the underside of the car once you have striped it back to the metal?
Is it just a case of applying rust killer, primer, and then top coat?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers

Hi m8,I'm no expert
The more layers/coats you use the better I would think,obviously any rust needs rubbing down/treating.
I only use my car for 6 months over the summer,don't think I would bother going to the trouble of doing underside if I used it all year round
Would probably treat the rust and just use underbody sealer/wax oil etc if using through the winter
Good luck with yours,get some pics up of the progress
