Re: {Chrysler 300} 300F Undercoating

[Jim Birr <jebirr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for all the input.  Actually went with SEM truck bed liner.  Another club member used as well with good results.  Talking to local paint shop it had good characteristics.  Bottom line it also sounded like undercoating on at least the F's but imagine others was all over the place in terms of how messy it might look, thickness, texture etc.  Pics enclosed of mine.  Its starting to look like a car again.

On my '56 DeSoto, we tried several products and methods and ultimately settled on this product, sprayed on heavy and then blew air onto it (while wet) to create the heavier texture: https://www.restorick.com/proddetail.php?prod=Undercoat

I documented some of this somewhere in my build thread located here: http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=62897&start=1

I was pretty satisfied with the final results in trying to match the original.

Good evening. 

Getting ready to do a 300c 

I plan on using Raptor bed liner. It comes as a 2 part product and a spray gun, nice thing if you want to undercoat the inner of the quarters inside the trunk you can tint this product as well. Most likely going to do it next week. 

Can send picture if you want of finished product.

Jim,

Every so often, I’ve freshened up my driver F’s wheel wells with Dupli-Color Truck Bed Coating - on the recommendation of John Begian many years ago. Photo -

My car is getting ready to come off of rotisserie (yeah) and shop wants to paint and undercoat it's belly (undercarriage) before it comes off.

Conversations with Jamie Hyde indicated 

• Under side is body color! Everything including the wheel houses, then undercoated. Fender liners are body color. 
• Texture a bit rougher than rattle can stuff and not as dull as.

So my question to the group - any recommendations on product to use?  May not be a concours car when done but don't want to do anything to preclude it - especially something relatively simple like this.

Thanks
