Does the car chassis need to be painted?
1 Answers
Chassis paint, also known as chassis armor, is not mandatory but provides certain protective benefits for the vehicle's undercarriage. Below are the key features of chassis armor: Impact and rust resistance: The chassis coating is a non-toxic adhesive rubber layer that forms a durable elastic protective film after application. It effectively prevents collisions, rust, and damage from flying stones and gravel. Even at temperatures exceeding 148°C, it won't melt or sag. Heat resistance: Primarily protects against summer road surface heat and acid rain erosion. While some new vehicles receive basic factory undercoating, it falls far short of the protection offered by professional chassis armor products.
