Rust Free! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

That's right, the underneath of my car is rust free!

I took Zabo's advice and went to Ziebart. They professional cleaned the underneath and wheel wells of my car, eliminated the rust, rust proofed it, and undercoated it (to prevent rust). This is the best $250 I have spent! They team was very nice and reviewed the whole underneath of my car with me. It looks amazing. I was able to snap some shots to show you! In addition, they were able to fix my heat shield over the rear axle to prevent the exhaust rattle!

Ah crap.. looks like they hit the inside of your wheels when they did it. Are the 17's on your car polished or chromed? If they're polished you could pull the wheel and take some 3M rubbing compound to it and a polishing rag to get it off.. if they're painted that's not happening. :/

Actually looks better than mine did when it was first done. Granted they did omit a bunch of suspension stuff because at the time I figured I was gonna pull it and just touch it up as I went along.

I may have to consider this. Mine is a summer only car though.

Looks good though!

Nothing has been retouched on mine since it was first sprayed in late 2010.

And I drove that thing in slushy, road salt gravy..

I'm glad I wasn't that first guy haha. That looks like they put it on with a roller.

And jeez they covered the suspension with the crap, hope it didn't get into the bushings.

Yup, now that the seal has been broken...

What's done is done, though. :(

And this enough of a response that I will not be doing this. LOL

And that's why I said "don't shoot the suspension"

In defense: It does actually clean off easy.. if it's not on anything you want to save paint on. Methyl Ethyl Ketone will take it off..

Oh wait, you guys can't get that stuff.

Good deal. I make a practice of undercoating every new car. It will save you grief down the road by preventing under body corrosion. Undercoating is especially useful in the northern and eastern seaboard states where snow and salt spreadings occur.
