1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!
Needed to take advantage of the nice weather today since its supposed to go away probably until spring and get the undercoating on close to the way the factory guys put it on (not quite as sloppy) so got to work and masked it all up and gave it a scuff with red Scotchbrite. Then I got out the RestoRick's undercoating that matches the factory stuff really well and put a couple of coats on. It's been my experience that since undercoating and or rock guard left in a raw state attract road grime and dirt and it tends to imbed and permanently make the undercoating look dirty so it's best if the product you used is rubberized and paintable that you put a black paint or coating on top of it. In my case I have some black Epoxy that should work nicely and not be too shiny and will allow the undercoating to wash off much better then if it was raw,
