Pat,
I would never use undercoat on them. I painted to match the body color, but
have one of the rock guard products on them, as well as the entire underside
of the car. My opinion is that the asphalt undercoatings crack, get water
under them and promote cancer that's destroyed the metal before you find it.
JMHO
Rob in Seattle.... where it rains sometimes.
