Automotive underbody coatings are applied on the underside of vehicles to provide a protective layer of protection between vehicle’s underside and damaging forces such as moisture, corrosion, stone chip damage and weather resistance.
Automotive underbody coatings are generally applied on areas such as wheel arches, inside wing panels and the undercarriage of the vehicle. They provide a barrier between the metal component and its outside environment; hence, protecting the vehicle from damage and improving its vehicle life.
Automotive underbody coatings not only provide corrosion and damage protection but also offer easy maintenance and reduce noise and vibrations. Some of the desired properties of automotive underbody coatings include good adhesion, fast drying, tough, flexible and corrosion protection. Automotive underbody coatings may be solvent-based or water-based.
