    yes. mud & grit would stick.
    some under coats feels tacky even for days.

    undercoating it will probably hide it until it has eaten thru the metal, whereupon it will probably cost considerably more, to fix.

    just eyeballing it, it seems to be pretty well-protected from trauma. the only reason i can think of, is that the rust was already there from the start... i do not think undercoating is needed for further protection, after the rust had been removed and the metal, re-painted.

    so i wonder,
    does mitsu practice quality factory rustproof?

    Speaking of undercoating, kailangan ko bang magpa-underwash pag tinawid ko sa RoRo ang sasakyan ko? O kaya naman ng undercoat ang seawater? Nagbabalak kasi ako magtravel to Mindanao by land.
