Seam sealer on the underside?
« on: May 29, 2009 - 09:05:57 PM »
Do i need to seam seal every little seam where metal comes together underneath? Not sure how much to do, and i don't remember if the underside had seam sealer or not. Seems like a waste of time if i am going to be spraying Raptor Liner on the entire underside. :clueless:

no, there is no need for seam sealer if you're going with liner, make sure the surface is treated with some sort of etching or epoxy primer

 :iagree:   I shot the underside of the car in epoxy and as much as possible between seams. After that a few thick coats of UBC to close all seams up.  I had the body up in a rotisserie, could be messy if you don`t use one...

 :2thumbs:Got it. I had previously shot the underside with epoxy primer, so i was good there. Anyhow i just finished up spraying the underside with bed liner from Raptor, and  :wow: does it look great.
