What are you guys using to coat the undercarrige of your cars? I have unibody car so it doesn't come off a frame. I have just about finished mock up and I need to prime and coat the undercarriage. The fender wells too; should I do something different for the fender wells? Black?? Any advice and or direction much appreciated.

I used 3 coats Southern Polyurethanes epoxy followed by SEM bedliner. I like the SEM bedliner, it has a nice almost shiny finish compared to some of the other bedliners I have seen. Not rubbery at all.

X2. Came out nice and don't look like you are trying to hide anything.

X3. Rhino liner lays nice and can still see detail in floorpan.

I just sprayed the Raptor bedliner in my Tundra work truck. Took about 10 hrs prep/cleaning/sanding, taping, shooting a couple coats, and then pulling all the tape/paper off over the course of a weekend.

For the price this stuff seemed like the best price. Takes 5 days to fully cure if being very hard on it. Best to shoot it in 60* weather... we did it in 50-55* temps in the sun. Actually did it with a buddy and split 3 kits as we put it on a bit thicker on the bottom and tail gate area. Glad I did as 1 kit wouldn't really have sufficed. 8' long bed. Cost us about $270 each which included the 1.5 kits each, sharing spray gun cost, and misc tape/paper/acetone. The spray gun should be cleaned between each coat (1hr wait time) and we just shot acetone thru the gun which cleaned it in 10 seconds.
