Underbody Coating

UNDERBODY COATING :

The underbody of a car during its lifetime is exposed to different external elements which will affect the unprotected body when it comes in contact. This will lead to corrosion, wear, tear and damage. This will affect the performance and life of a car. The Underbody coating provides a solution to this problem.

It is a thick layer of protective coat given to the exposed underbody protecting it from any damages.

PURPOSES :

The underbody coating helps to avoid the damages done to the car body by objects that come into contact since the bottom of a car always has the chance to comes in contact with dust, small gravel dust, etc. It forms a kind of thick layer which is not easily damaged thereby protecting the car parts from damage.

INSULATION :

Extreme hot or cold weather will affect the exposed car body parts leading to rust formation. It provides a kind of insulation from hot or cold conditions which might affect the body when exposed.

The insulation provided by the coating also acts like a sound barrier for the interior of the car as it reduces noise.

The sound reduction properties help in improving the ride experience.
