Is this any better than regular undercoating?

I used undercoating and it did nothing. I sprayed this under and around the spare tire made it big difference.

Its different than undercoating. They are used for different purposes. If you want undercoating to prevent corrosion, go get undercoating. If you want a sound absorbing material for the interior of the car that is simple to apply and works well, use Boom Mat. I used this on my door panels, floor, trunk area and roof, let it dry for 24 hours then reinstalled my interior panels/carpet and the car is noticeably quieter and it has reduced the door rattles that i previously had.Cliffs: not an undercoating replacement, this is to reduce sound/heat. good at doing just that.

I used an impregnator sealant because I didn't want shiny countertops. It didn't work as well as we'd hoped. :( I asked someone on Instagram who also had concrete counters (that looked gorgeous) what she used: Trewax Stone & Tile Finish. I'll be doing another coat in the next year or so and plan to use that.

That is exactly what I used it for. It did a great job. Just make sure e give it time to cure. 5 days is what I did, then I sprayed undercoating on top of it

This is better than the Ultimate- & Quick detailer, easier in use and adds a way better hydrophobic finish to the surface.One of the best quick detailer sprays on the market. And it smells great ;) Kind Regards

We use the Meguair's 67 one step compound on our RV's because the gel gloss was oxidized then used the 2.0 for a final coat. It's hard work but worth it and when you only do it every year. First heard about this product from a guy with a huge expensive motorhome that said he only had to do his once a year with 2.0 vicve 3 times a year with carnuba wax.

I use the 3m coating for the undercoating for my jeep cherokee. works great I give it 5 stars. This works better than anything I have ever used.

Compared to other physical sunblocks (titanium dioxide/zinc oxide) it glides on so much better/easier, but I have to say the coverage isn't as great as the others (that are harder to put on). I think you have to reapply more often, but because reapplying is easier than the other CHUNKY/CHALKY formulas, I am actually going to buy more of these. I tanned with this on, as well as my toddler, but it is definitely less THICK and easier to apply.

SHORT ANSWER- Not So. While plain water is better as long as your car is cleaned (you may find when you have enough Klasse Sealant on your car's surface that road grime, bird sh_ _ etc. doesn't stick). I used this product a couple decades ago and didn't find again until recently; and on my Miata, have done two coats of their polish glaze, and followed with four separate applications on the Klasse High Gloss Sealant. (In my experience you need a minimum of two coats to be sure of a proper application. With the Klasse FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS ON APPLYING ONLY SMALL AMOUNTS ON APPLICATOR is a MUST, and personally apply in North-South in one coat and followed by second coat going East-West, again to ensure 100% coverage. Follow Klasse Instructions and do each coat a day apart. The is an acrylic sealant (believe it's same product from 20 years ago which was based on the same polymer used in plexiglass- oxidation is minimal from weather and chemically fairly inert; it is not a 'wax' which dries out where the acrylic polymer needs TIME to crosslink (bond) to the surface). OK the Klasse is on your car. IF you use any decent car shampoo, following instructions ( too concentrated or especially if allowed to dry on the car - can be bad as soap do tends to be caustic materials). Use per car shampoo instructions in a bucket, the clean car using a CLEAN rag (wash it as a gritty dirty towel will cause those light scratches you see on some cars other than mechanical washes).; then rinse with a lot of clean water. Wipe water off with a chamois cloth, wringing out as needed, then wipe down with microfiber cloth for final drying. There are some good sites with even better information on technique like Autogeek.net which also help. davzway

I used water based polyurethane and love it. I used the rustoleum brand in gloss (maybe it's called high gloss). I waited for the paint to completely dry for about a week, and then I applied 2 coats. It went on really easily and looks much better than it did without it. Also now the fridge is very easy to clean. There is not a single scratch or anything. I would highly recommend putting the polyurethane on. The water based poly doesn't smell, dries in about an hour and cleans up with water.

In New England, we apply oil treatments to the underside of our vehicles once a year. Fluid Film adheres better than oil -so I wouldn't expect it to be any more than that

I have a dog with a thick undercoat and long top coat and this basically took her down to a normal looking coat. Just use it a little at a time, and NOT long strokes like a regular brush, b/c it does pull out the undercoat and this wasn't super pleasant for my baby. Again, it WORKS, and I highly recommend it for that type of coat, especially getting into the Spring, when the undercoat wants to go through that "molting" period, but use conditioner on your baby and use this stripper in small sessions. :)

I personally think that adding a clear coat will make removing the DIP a little harder to peal especially if the DIP is not very thick. You can use the Glossifier to give it a shine but it will not look like a factory painted base coat / clear coat finish on a car. Regardless if you use the Glossifier or not once it has dried for 24 hours or more, give it a once over with Armorall (The original interior kind) it will give it a smoother feel and bring out a little more shine.

I have used this product on wood and metal. I used 2 good coats. I worked great on my fridge and wood molding. On the metal fridge it holds up great to heavy wear, but i dont know how it would do on the seat part (metal rivets and all). If you use this product on the legs and back rest it would work beautifully. I think this should be the jewel in any crazy diy decorator (like me, lol)! I love it but make sure you let it dry completely between coats and work in a well ventilated room for a few tips. Cheap foam brushes work great and remember to keep brush stroke level and in the same direction. Good luck. I have used this product on wood and metal. I used 2 good coats.

I would highly suggest that you would consider using a Gloss Water Base Polyurathane product. Application is much easier and a great deal less toxic. Several coats may be applied on the same day due to the rapid drying time. Good LUck

I used it for just regular base coat. It works great this way for me, hope this helps.

It does help...it does a better job of hiding scratches than any other product I have used.

I use it for stickers all over my car for company advertising. I can get a year out of the waterproof vinyl. I've played with different coatings but jury is still out on what works best even necessary at all. Let dry for 15 minutes and BE SURE you do the warm-water rince, makes a big difference. We are playing with glow-in-the-dark sprays also; but ONLY use Rust-oleum sprays, we used Krylon and the crappy top on the can dripped liquid all over the vinyl, Rust-oleum has great spray nozzles. Also, the best spray we think is the one called Automative Gloss Lacquer - it's for sealing auto-paint and seems to work great on this.
