Underside paint?

Now I’ve got my rear arches repaired I now want to paint them. As the area is under the rear arch liners I’m not bothered about the area being body coloured and would rather have maximum protection.

With that in mind I was going to Hammerite the area but thought I’d ask if there was a better product on the market first?

Cheers,
Chris.

If paint is what you want, then I agree, POR 15 is good.

Dare I ask what you would spray on an undercarriage?

No Matt, I’m talking about the rear arches under the lining.

Upol Raptor is a very tough coating
or Gravitex.

I applied Raptor to the underside of my Lancia trackday car.
