Chieffy,

May mairerecommend ka bang undercoating or rustproofing shops sa Pasig Area?

Tama si sir theveed. Magkaiba yun ... pero some shops would actually offer both as a package para daw mura :-)

CLAVEL3699, since bago pa naman ... can you still negotiate that as a freebe pa? :-)

Everytime pumunta ako ng honda for the 1k checkup parati akong inaalok ng rustproofing.

hi clavel, kami we didnt avail yung rustproofing. hehe how much bigay sa iyo ng casa? somebody from HCP forums told me its better to have it done outside the casa cause mas malinis silang gumawa. you can opt for the same company naman, SAVI di ba?

yung undercoat lang ang kinuha namin, kasi free. hehe

saan po ba magandaa magpa-undercoating and rustproofing na mura lang?

Actually, its better to have it done outside than via dealer. Mas makakatipid ka. I learned this the hard way when I realized the dealer just does the underbody thing (not really sure kung rustproof yun) care of TufKote (SAVI), instead of full (pati inside panels, etc.).

Out of curiosity, I went to TufKote (SAVI) to check out their menu of services and found out I could've saved some money if I went directly to them (instead of car dealer). And they offer many levels of treatment.

As for the warranty, pareho lang may warranty.
The warranty is conditional to annual reapplication. Without the reapplication, the warranty's as good as worthless. Either way (dealer or direct).

And yes, I do believe certain car makers have improved their rust protection capabilities such that one doesn't really need to have it done outside after purchasing the car.

But if only for peace of mind, it might be good to apply it immediately upon purchase. And not just underbody portion. If only for peace of mind.

Just my two cents.

kung undercoating, better bili ka sa auto supply, diff brands ito (i prefer 3m rubberized or shell), then dalin mo sa gas station of your choice, dun mo pa underbody wash at pa-apply. it's much cheaper kung package ng gas stations but less hassle. re. rustproofing (inner cavities like doors, fenders etc.) tuff coat dynol ako IMHO.
