Underbody
I am about to primer my 67 camaro after finishing all the metalwork and was wondering what everyone thinks I should put on the bottom of the shell. The car is on a rotissere so this is the best time to primer/ undercoat the bottom of the car. Maybe some POR15or some other product that I have not heard about. Thanks.

I'm thinking I might use epoxy primer followed by U-pol Raptor bedliner. I used this stuff on my truck and although it seemed a little too thin for a bedliner, I think it would make an excellent undercoating. Do a search for Lenie in the project updates section, he used it on the underside of his 68 Firebird.

I'm close to doing the same on mine and was wondering the same thing, like to hear what others have to say. I was thinking epoxy or POR-15 followed by some sort of bedliner.

Although I have not quite got to the uncoating stage, I believe I may try this approach. I am surprised more have not gone this route.

Por-15, I have been using it everywhere on my build and am really happy with the results. I am very skeptical of any kind of body deadner/bedliner. The reason that i say that is that most rust problems i have seen develop underneath cars are due to the deadner cracking after time and trapping moisture underneath.
Go the Por-15

Your welcome guys. It's a rare occasion that I get to help others out here. Like stated earlier, I think I will epoxy coat, rough up a little, then try this semi-smooth underbody coating. Who ever completes their's first, please post pics.
