RP-342 "HEAVY" Military-Grade Rust Preventive Spray works great so far....2 cans coated the entire underside. Reviews are all positive

Planning to have it sprayed by NH Oil Undercoating when I get it home.

Am also curious as to the best option.. expecting mine in late jan/feb and it will be heavy winter. Would like to set it up for success in terms of rust avoidance.

I have my 2018 done by "Rust Cop ", an annual ritual. It's applied to all cavities, inside of frame, everything from the beltline down.
Google "Carwell .com" for information, reviews

I‘m considering using RP-342 on my new JLUR and wondering how your is holding up? Any pics showing when you first sprayed versus how it looks now? Thx.

Here is a pic I took yesterday when I did the diff cover. 1 year of ownership in Wisconsin weather...daily driver with almost 10,000 miles. No rust anywhere.

I sprayed fluid film last year. One bad thing is the smell that lingered for a long time. A year later it's still wet which I guess is good, but it's a mess when I installed wiring for lighting. Now that it's on, I'm pretty much stuck with it as I don't think another product would stick

I live in Salt Lake City and we get quite a bit of snow and they are not shy about spraying brine and road salt everywhere…

that being said I don’t undercoat anything and I have never had any issues. I have found that aftermarket parts (step bars etc) tend to show some signs of rust but the factory components hold up pretty good.

my wife has a ‘16 golf R, I have a’14 Raptor and we just sold our ‘18 rubicon to buy a 392. No real rust issues on any of them and no protection other than periodically spraying them down at the car wash.

What works for me is an ordinary high heat resistance paint can. Many years ago when I had leftover can after doing some manifold work I tested just out of curiosity some of the black paint on a little patch of rust along the frame and that place was cured of any brown cancerous growth for many more salty winters .
