anybody got any tidy tips for undersealing the floorpan? never attempted before so not sure if i should take it to a garage to get it done??

 

do you mean like waxoil, or somat different??

 

just want to put a sealer of some sort underneath just to protect it. any recommendation?

 

If you dont mind gettin dirty scrub under the car with a stiff brush,then you can buy underseal with added waxoil in a black tin with yellow wrighting on it wich can be brushed on with a paint brush,dont aply it directly to anything that gets hot like the exhaust.youl be able to protect this winter for less than a tenner.

 

Just a suggestion , don't use underseal as its crap and never dry's properly.
Use stone chip its far better and dry's very quickly and can be over painted .....

 

I always use underseal and it's always dried okay for me - although it will take a few days. Seems good stuff. I try to touch up the underside at least once a year. I also removed the wheel arch liners and undersealed it all with the yellow waxoyl and then replaced the liners and sealed them with the black underseal to stop any water and muck getting behind them.

 

i always thought it was bad to underseal in this weather as you can trap moisture which will make it rust.

Being a sprayer with 25yrs experience id suggest stone chip (again) as underseal is crap and stays tacky .......
The weather has jack all to do with moisture , as long as the job your doing is dry and inside a workshop , etch the bare metal , then apply the stone chip , allow to dry , then spray over which ever colour your needs are .....

 

so your saying stonechip will bond better then waxoil ect?

 

Id etch the bare metal first , then stone chip it , allow to dry , then paint to colour of vehicle allow to dry then wax oil .....
