Undercoating Questions- Woolwax wax/ nhou?

[Hockeyman70s]

Hi All, just bought a new gen 3. I live in NE and want to get it undercoated before salt hits the roads. Ive used Wool wax before and liked it on a toyota. Would folks recommend that or something else like NHOU etc.? Also, anything they should be taping off or not spraying? Thanks

There are already a few threads on this.

There are shops that will coat it in Fluid Film or something similar. It’s probably cheaper to pay a shop than to buy a bunch of cans.

Waxoyl is what i use and im just a few hours north of you. Its not messy like wool wax and fluid film. It leaves a nice factory look.

True but it’s MUCH cheaper to buy a $46 gallon and $24 applicator gun. The gallon will last you 2 seasons easy. It would take FOREVER to get an even coat with the cans. The cans do not have a wide spray pattern.

Last time that I checked it was around $200 or so to get it coated at a shop. If I could have a lift in my garage it would be a hell of a lot easier, but the ceiling isn’t high enough.
