๐จ RUST STARTS FROM THE INSIDE OUT! Is Your Vehicleโs Frame Rusting Where You Canโt See It? ๐จ
๐ Think your vehicle is too old for undercoating? THINK AGAIN!
One of the biggest mistakes vehicle owners make is assuming that once rust starts, thereโs no point in protecting their vehicle. The truth is, itโs never too late to help slow down corrosion โ but the sooner you start, the better!
๐ง What many people donโt realize is that rust can develop INSIDE your vehicleโs frame long before you notice serious damage on the outside.
Over the years, road salt, moisture, dirt, and debris collect inside the frame rails, crossmembers, and other hidden areas. These contaminants trap moisture and accelerate corrosion, eating away at the metal from the inside.
๐ ๏ธ At PLP Frameworks and Restoration, we believe proper rust protection goes beyond simply spraying undercoating on the outside!
For older vehicles, proper preparation is critical:
โ
Blow Out the Frame Rails โ Remove accumulated dirt, loose rust, salt, and debris from inside the frame.
โ
Treat Internal Corrosion โ Apply professional rust-neutralizing products where appropriate to help stabilize existing corrosion.
โ
Soak the Internal Frame Cavities โ Apply penetrating rust-inhibiting cavity protection to reach hidden areas and help slow future corrosion.
โ
Protect the Undercarriage โ Apply professional corrosion-resistant undercoating to help protect exposed metal against moisture, road salt, and harsh Northeast winters.
โ ๏ธ Remember: Undercoating doesnโt magically repair rusted metal or restore structural strength. But when properly prepared and treated, it can help significantly slow the corrosion process and extend the useful life of your vehicle.
๐ฅ THE NEWER THE VEHICLE, THE BETTER THE PROTECTION!
Protecting a clean, newer frame before corrosion takes hold is always the best investment. But even if youโre driving a 10-, 15-, or 20-year-old truck or SUV, there may still be plenty of opportunity to protect whatโs left!
