Default Underbody sealing

Hi does anyone have any recommendations for undersealing / corrosion prevention and approximate costs for a blob eye?

Brian at cams performance does a full on service for undersealing etc and get your bits powdercoated if you wished to do so iv3 seen some really nice jobs people have done and can give you a proper quote on what you want done

I’ll be doing mine next year was supposed to do it this year

For a full job: stripping, cleaning, drying sealing and stone chip protection I wouldn't expect much change from £350.
Look for any classic car garages local to you, they're usually experienced in this.
It's a filthy job to do yourself.

Be wary of having it done cheap. Putting waxoil or seal over the top of any moisture will cause the metal to rust under the coating.

I was looking into this too.
Is there anyone in the Yorkshire area that can do this?

It is but you get to lie down throughout it

I did mine for the cost of a few wire drill attachments & 4-5 cans of the stuff. It'll look awesome when it end sup on its roof in a ditch

A mate of mine hooked me up with a local garage who will need the car for 24hrs, they strip off all bumpers and side skirts, wirebrush off any surface rust then underseal the entire bottom of car. He normally charges £200 but £150 to me so I'll be looking to get this done soon.
