Automotive Rubberized Undercoating

  • Updated

DESCRIPTION AND USES

Rust-Oleum Rubberized Undercoating is an easy-to-use black rubberized protective coating. It provides corrosion protection from water, salt and other chemicals. It helps deaden sound and provides a barrier against rust on cars, trucks, trailers and other recreational vehicles. Use on bare or primed metal on the underbody of cars, trucks, trailers and other recreational vehicles. Undercoating features an advanced spray system that allows you to spray at any angle, even upside down for those hard to reach areas. A comfort spray tip with a wider finger pad reduces fatigue caused by continuous spraying.

PRODUCT APPLICATION

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surfaces must be free of dirt, dust, oil, grease and any contamination that may interfere with adhesion. Remove loose paint and rust with a wire brush or sandpaper. Lightly sand glossy surfaces. Mask off area to avoid overspray on the auto finish.

PAINTING CONDITIONS

Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area such as an open garage. Apply when temperature is between 50-90°F (10-32°C) and humidity is below 85% to ensure proper drying. Do not apply to surfaces that, when heated, exceed 200°F (93°C) or galvanized metal. Avoid spraying in very windy, dusty conditions. Cover surrounding area to protect from spray mist.

APPLICATION

Shake can vigorously for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. If mixing ball fails to rattle DO NOT STRIKE CAN. Contact Rust-Oleum. Shake often during use. Hold can 12-16" from surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface and in motion while spraying. For best results, apply two coats (allow product to dry for 1-2 minutes between coats). Do not use near open flame.

DRY & RECOAT TIMES

Dry and recoat times are based on 70°F (21°C) and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Dries to the touch in 30 minutes. Can be recoated in 1-2 minutes and is fully dry in 24 hours.

CLEAN-UP

Wipe off tip when finished. Clean up wet paint with Xylene or mineral spirits. Throw away empty can in trash pickup. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor.

CLOGGING

If the valve clogs, twist and pull off spray tip and rinse in a solvent such as mineral spirits. Do not insert any object into can valve opening.
