Clear Underbody Rustproofing Service / Treatment

Buzzweld U.P. Underbody preservation is a borosilicate glass re-enforced underbody clear lacquer with exceptional anti-corrosive properties.

We treat the entire underside of your vehicle, including chassis, axles, and underbody, in almost all cases including wheel arches, and some trim removal. U.P. has significant time and cost benefits over waxes and paints as it can be completed same day.

U.P. is specifically formulated to be applied to a wet surface that has had minimal preparation.  U.P. will offer medium term protection above that of oils, and other waxes at low preparation levels.

Benefits include

1. Clear- U.P. does not hide existing issues. You can spot problems as they occur and maintain accordingly.
2. PREVENTS road salts and dirt sticking to the underside.
3. LOW reactivity. U.P. is compatible with most existing paints and treatments making it ideal as a Patina Preserver, and a topup protection system.
4. EXTREME creep from absorption, as well as capillary action. 
5. U.P. flows in between spot welds, and absorbs into corrosion forcing out the residual moisture and air, suffocating the ability for corrosion to continue.
6. TIME effective. a U.P. underbody treatment can be completed in as little as 2 hours.
7. FAST CURE. U.P. can be touch dry in as little as 30 minutes.
8. High temperature tolerance. Survives on the exhaust system up to but not including the downpipe.
9. Forces out moisture from wiring looms, and electrical connectors.
10. Presents an easy to clean surface.
11. Vehicle underbody stays dryer for longer, and holds less water in adverse conditions.
12. Hydrophobic
13. Dries properly, does not wash away, or attract dirt/ debris
14. Makes maintenance work ALOT easier- cleaner, drier, less rust.
15. EASY to weld, or prepare an area that has been treated.

We estimate the lifespan of U.P. conservatively to be between 12 and 36 months to first maintenance. This will vary based on the existing condition, and useage.

Typical Process.

1. removal of wheel arch liners
2. Steam cleaning @155C of underbody
3. Air jetting down to remove excess moisture
4. Application of UP to underbody and cavities and arches.
