Protect Your Undercarriage with ValuGard at Truck Stuff
RUSTPROOF YOUR UNDERCARRIAGE
Rust and environmental elements, both natural and man-made, can attack the sheet metal of your vehicle. ValuGard Rustproofing from Truck Stuff penetrates crevices and cavities to form a clear, waterproof, salt and magnesium chloride resistant seal for a completely protective undercoating.
ValuGard Undercoating seals your vehicle underside against road salt, dirt, stone, gravel, as well as the salt and brackish waters of Southwest Florida. The asphalt-based, self-healing formula acts as a sound deadener and helps insulate your vehicle from heat and cold.

Frequently Asked Questions
Tap a question to view the answer.
How long does it take to get my vehicle protected with ValuGard Undercoat and Rust Inhibitor?
It is normally a 24-hour application process.
Can I drive my vehicle as soon as it's done?
After curing overnight, you may drive your vehicle.
Can I take my vehicle through a car wash?
ValuGard products can take up to one week to fully cure. Avoid car washes or pressure washing the underbody for one week.
My vehicle was just undercoated, why are some areas not coated?
Undercoat is not applied to anything that spins (drive shaft), has moving parts (brakes), or gets hot (exhaust system).
I noticed you undercoated everything besides my frame, why?
Certain vehicle frames have an undercoating applied during assembly. That frame coating is warranted under the manufacturer's 3yr/36K new vehicle limited warranty.
Do you remove the spare tire when you undercoat?
Yes, we remove and coat on the backside. In rare cases, the spare tire may be rusted in and we cannot remove.
My vehicle underbody has some rust. What do you do for prep before applying undercoat?
First, we pressure wash the underbody. Second, wire brush to remove remaining corrosion. Third, we apply ValuGard Rust Converter to encapsulate existing rust and create a quality surface for undercoat bonding. After the converter sets up, we topcoat with ValuGard undercoat. This process takes about 3 hours.
My vehicle is only 1-2 years old, why does it not have a warranty?
Your vehicle had evidence of corrosion/rust on the underbody. Used vehicles with rust or corrosion present do not qualify for any ValuGard warranty.
Why do we need the customer’s name and address?
For any warranted vehicle, we need the customer’s name and address to complete the warranty registration.
I noticed I have some overspray. How can I remove this?
We do our best to mask off certain areas prone to overspray. In some cases, even after a walk-around, we may miss spots. We’d be happy to take care of this for you, or you can remove it with a rag dampened in mineral spirits. Mild mineral spirits are safe on paint. Do not use a hot solvent like MEK or acetone.
Are annual inspections or reapplications required?
No, ValuGard coatings never require inspection. If you see rust, bring it to our attention, or call ValuGard directly at 800-543-7156 to report a claim. Ask for the warranty manager.
