What have people used for undercoating their cars? Is undercoating a necessity
or is it optional? The car will be used for occasional street/AX/DE driving. Should I strip the old undercoating from my wheel wells? It looks pretty stable. So far I have cleaned the underside and painted with eastwood silver rust encapsulator. ![]() Thanks for any advice. John |

I think you have a good point. 914s rust where water is trapped, either by their design or by the foam and sealer Porsche added. My car was completely rusted out on the lower 2 inches. The higher parts of the car look brand new. Seems like insuring good drainage from all trouble spots is key. I hate to put rubberized undercoat on my newly cleaned and painted underside but it seems this is the only way to avoid paint chips and subsequent rust. |
