Undercoating I can understand, though I'm certainly not sure that it is
a good deal, as priced. Waxing should be left until the vehicle is a few
months old. Ask any auto painter and they will tell you not to wax until
the paint has outgassed for a few weeks.

Re: undercoating
I used this stuff inside and out, did my entire tub, undercoated my
undercarriage and used POR15 inside my doors and window frame.
http://www.herculiner.com/ I put 3 coats in the tub and two coats
underneath it costs around $150.00 I did not use the rollers or stuff that
came with the kit I used a stenciling brush which worked better. Just follow
the directions on prep if you don't you will regret it. It took me a whole
weekend plus Monday after work to put everything back together. I get a lot
of complements on the job I even did the door sills it also helps insulate
and reduce road noise. I removed all the carpeting out of the Sahara which
really works out well. When I was in the USCG I did the same thing with a
vinyl paint we used on buoys inside and out when I sold the CJ 20 years
later no rust. Maintenance and being ---- are the keys for a long life in
any vehicle. I had a 1973 Toyota PU that I bought new and when I sold it 22
years later with 500,000 miles on it no rust (buoy paint) and the engine
only burned 1 qt of oil between changes.

Re: undercoating
Sandman.. drive North my boy.. Visit the Wilds of Canada and while your here
go visit either a Rust Check shop or Krown. I cant speak for Krown but Rust
Check carries their own warranty on rust through for new cars and NO it
doesn't void the manufactures. Your Jeep might cost you about $115-145 Cdn
due to its new and never been done before.. they drill holes (yes holes) in
your doors, lower pillars and rockers if the factory hasn't. The Gent I use
here in Ontario has a big contract with two cities for their fire
departments, the police contract, local utilities, a local Ford dealer sends
customers there too and every Dec. 6 he does Santa's ride this year it was a
nice new 05 stang (local dealer supplied it providing it got sprayed for
free).

Re: undercoating
I used this stuff inside and out, did my entire tub, undercoated my
undercarriage and used POR15 inside my doors and window frame.
