Default Where to buy underseal

Does anyone have a source in the US for the gray underseal applied to the floor pan and the bottom of the front trunk underside. I believe it's a 3M product.

Thanks,

JF

It is not so simple. Actually Wurth makes a product that can be tinted to match. You can brush it on but it will not look correct. To replicate the finish you need an expensive spray gun to apply it.

Thanks for your reply, tinted with what to match the gray color? I have the usual scrapes, rear of the front under tray from bottoming out, touching it up with the correct color would look better than it does now even if it doesn't match the texture exactly.

Which Wurth product is it on the link you posted?

Here's the catch 22. If you d an excellent job cleaning it and have the material tinted to the factory color, more than likely it won't match. It is kind of a taupey gray color. it is also not cheap So it will be very obvious from both color and texture depending on how much is damaged. The usual approach is to spray the entire section no matter if it needs it or not.

You might as well just try something like this.

It won't be a perfect match or texture but should work OK, but I would do the entire section so it all matches.

For reference, here is the 3M product 08879

If the link ever stops working you want 08879 for grey, 08868 for black, 08878 for white

I used the grey then paint over the top.

You'll need a shultz gun if spraying it. TIP: It goes on thick so be totally certain it is ABSOLUTELY bone dry all the way through before over painting. Forget the 2hrs drying time in the blurb.

It appears this is only available in the UK
