    Hello, I have been wanting to put this on here for a while. I washed my car and polished the GTP. I decided to try to prevent the paint from chipping on those back quarter panels by putting bedliner on their. It works awesome. It started flaking off but I was rushed due to weather and didnt sand down some of the fenders underneath. Heres a pic anyway

    Prep probably would have helped a lot. I did mine with undercoating.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    I've heard things like that on fender wells and underbody can actually make rust worse, because once it starts to crack or flake the salt/water gets in there and then it holds the salt/water to the metal instead of letting it get washed away. I dont know how true it is though... living in the salt belt, I'd definitely like to protect my metal somehow.

    Yeah I heard that too. I am going to rip it all off and take the wheels off so I can do a better job. I would rather have it on cause where I am the only time we have to worry about salt is winter but all summer I drive lots of gravel which is hard on the paint around those fenders.
