This is what I found about undercoating:

Pro -
1. The benefit touted by most "old timers" was the reduced noise and vibration coming from the vehicles structure. It acted as a huge noise dampening blanket under the Vehicle. Chassis' are much tighter than decades ago I don't think today's modern vehicles benefit enough from undercoating to warrant the cost (or risk).
2. Easy enough to do it yourself.
3. It's repairable; since it bonds to itself... just touch it up with more liner.
4. Looks professional in appearance.

Con -
1. Undercoating is not the same as rust proofing. It is a coating resembling spray-in bed liner material (but I'm sure not as durable). The common "myth" was that it prevented rust, but in many cases, because of the myriad of dangling pieces in a chassis, complete coverage is not possible, thus resulting in "trapping" moisture. Undercoating was also much less resistant to tearing and scraping than bed liners, which allowed additional moisture into the chassis.
2. May tend to get tacky (gooey) in the summer's heat.
3. Salt will collect in small pockets or chipped off areas of undercoating and will trap salt. It is more harmful to undercoat than it is to leave the metal exposed. The undercarriage liner may hide rust spots from sight.
4. Rust prevention is as easy as taking your vehicle to the wash to spray salt off undercarriage after a romp on the beach.

thanks 2002Sporty! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Like you said before,
"Info on this forum ..is golden!" <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Duplicolor sells a great undercoat in a spray can that is very good for doing what you are looking for. About 4 cans will do your floor & frame = 1 coat is all you need & it does not add alot of weight to the rig.

I just did my 71 chevy frame inside & out followed up with a semi gloss krylon black to keep it from fading.

Or you could use the roll on bedliner material for even a tougher product. Sold @ Wally World or Pep Boyz.

The cost is 1/2 if ya use the spray on.

I see your logic.....Almost but is seems to be almost correct (almost) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I really do not think that extra layers will effect gas consumption at all (could be wrong though) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

After the sandblasting procedure I should be able to correctly apply the coat protection and would also like the sound proofing thing for sure! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for all the info!

Didn't know that you were going to sand blast the frame. Some <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> neglect to do all the steps.
The under coating should look really nice when your finished. Can't wait to see end results. Keep-er posted.
