Sirs,

I just bought a REVO Diesel GLX Year 2000 Model and i want to keep my unit Healthy in any way, buy not yet into Grooming.;)

Well, i would like to ask the difference between the two "RUSTPROOFING VS. UNDERCOATING"

I live in the province and my Unit will also be exposed in rough roads.

1.Whats your best advise in order for me to protect my REVO?
2.What do they do in Rustproofing or Undercoating?How long does it take for each procedure?
3.How much is the Cost of Rustproofing , Undercoating?
4.How often do a Vehicle undergo RustProofing?Undercoating?
5.Which is the best and dependable Shop?for Rustproofing?Undercoating (kay Sir Chieffy syempre)?
6.Any Warranty? i read a thread it says P4,000 for initial Rustproofing then P1,000 for yearly sessions. How about in Undercoating?

Other than the Above mga sirs,

Syempre po Second Hand ito Model 2000 na nabili ko, what are those things that should i pay attention to?

undercoating covers only the underside of your vehicle while rustproofing protects the panels (doors, fenders , etc.) of it. rustproofing involves the coating (injection) of chemicals to the backside of the panels. ziebart and tuffcoat dinol are the leading rusproofing companies in the phil. the caltex station along pedro gil street in paco is the leading undercoating specialist this side of town. have you considered electronic rusproofing?

Teka, so does rustproofing include undercoating? Bigay sa akin ng Toyota free rustproofing eh. Do I still have to bring it to Chieffy for undercoating?

[eyescube]

Sir Afrasay,
Meaning, kailangan ko both , Rustproofing and Undercoating pala.

How long does it take for Rustproofing?
Paki post naman Sirs kung ano Tel. Nos. ng mga dependable ziebart and tuffcoat dinol rusproofing companies in the phil. para makapagpa-book na ng appointment.

Whats electronic rusproofing?

Alin ba dapat ang mauna? Magpa-rustproofing 1st ba then Undercoating? or either which?

Sir Paolorenszo,

Dude, i read a thread na yearly daw application ng Rustproofing, 1st Application daw, P4K , then followed by P1K na lang for re-application annually...

Sir Chieffy, how about your undercoating Service?he~he~he~ alisin mo na yung discount ha? tapos magkano na yung succeding Yearly re-applications?

Para sa akin kailangan ko talaga ito lalo na't expose yung Toy ko sa rough terrain.

electronic rustproofing yun meron sila ikabit sa chasis ng car mo na electronic device para ang effect eh anodized ang car, meaning electrically charged na mag-repel ng oxidants.

you can do this without the expensive electronic gizmo by just welding inexpensive zinc anode bars to the chasis. same effect, less cost.

Sino po kaya sa mga tsikoteers ang gumawa na nito Sir Yebo? ikaw nagawa mo na rin ba ito? dito sa amin sa Offshore kadaming ganyan merong Cathodic Protection itong Oil Platform namin... kuha kaya ako nito, ha~ha~ha~

[yebo]

offshore din ako pare hehehe! transocean offshore drilling (dating sedco-forex) dito sa indonesia. nag-uwi ako ng zinc rods 2 months ago, round bars, yung gamit namin sa engine cooling system para hindi kainin ng sea water ang tubes. pinukpok ko na lang para maging flat tapos hanap ako ng part dun sa body saka chasis kung saan pwede ikabit ng screw. 3 nilagay ko, 1 sa front chasis, 1 sa back saka 1 sa body. ewan ko lang how effective kasi 2 months pa lang, saka 2002 model car ko.

sabihin ko sa iyo kung effective, paalala mo sa akin after 5 years hehehehe!

[eyescube]

Yaiks, talaga naman 5 years pa yun, he~he~he~

Anyways, i still have to go for the Rustproofing & undercoating Applications.

Tenks.
