| This week I bought one of those 3M Paint/Rust wheels. I crawled under the car and zapped a few spots. Took it down to clean and shiny metal. I also took a small hammer and tapped around, all nice and solid. The front half of the car still has the factory black undercoat. Floorpans are clean with just a few small surface spots and no rot. Next weekend I'm going to buzz the whole car with it and undercoat it with the Rustoleum brush on primer. | |

Pretty much sums up how I feel. Car was garaged by the original owner for about 13 of its 17 years. it was such a great thing to see nice clean metal under there.  | |

| My Caprice still has all of its factory undercoating. There are a few spots that it peeled off and has surface rust but other than that barely any orange/brown under there. | |

Well from the rear axel back it was brown, but it all came clean. I'm very pleased. | |
