It's about 10-12bux a bottle, and it is a rubberized undercoating used for wheel wells and undercarraiges. It is about the best tool to have for an econobox.

here are my Fog lamp surrounds, which were totally chewed up from road debris (I have had 3 broken fog lamps in 1 year). The coating makes a bedliner type or coarse powdercoat-like wrinkle black finish.



The coating also reduces vibrations since it is a sound dampener/sealant. We used like 4 cans of it in a stripped CX EG h22 hatchback to drop the interior resonance levels because the motor mounts were super hard polyurethane. It helped out quite a bit. I have one can left, but will likely run through it quickly. My last can I used to coat and adhere the dynamat in my boat's engine bay cover which is fiberglass. The rubberized coating dropped the engine noise substantially, and makes it much more pleasant cruising at speed. I feel like the whole fit needs to get a coating of it underneath, in the doors, wheel wells, you name it, just to make it a little more durable and quiet the road noise a bit, plus it always makes the stereo sound better, as you don't get the funky vibrations.
