Hi all,

I’m wondering what your opinion is on the undercoating Mazda offers.

I live in a city with snow 6 months, with lots of salt applied to the roads.

Does undercoating really do anything?

Not sure if it’s worth the extra charge.

Thank you.

    If its the thick black stuff, no. If you get one, go with krown or fluid film. It’s probably a lot cheaper than the dealer

    DO NOT RUBBER UNDERCOAT!!! You’ll actually make the frame rust worse!!! Get a fluid film (oil based) undercoating instead please! Needs to be reapplied/inspected once per year!

    Not at dealer.

    Go to a well known detail shop that deals with big money cars. They will let you know what you need and pay for it.

    Or just be diligent and do undercarriage washed frequently.

    Cars have gotten a lot better. My first car was I focus ZX3 and. I made sure to do it. Wash and self coat.

    My baby is still on the road today. Sad, but still driving
