Default Underbody paint?

I have seen a few pictures of guys with black painted underbodies and it looks ten times better. I think someone told me it was a brush on and not a spray on. Even black paint with brush strokes would look better than rusted bare metal. Thanks.

Eastwood has everything...even the paint for the exhaust, just roll it on.

At work I use WURTH underbody spray. It's german, comes in a spray can, is somewhat expensive, yet yeilds the best results. It goes on real even and dries quickly. Not really a paint, because it has a decent amount of rubber in it.

If your looking to coat the body itself, this is what you want to use. The painted exhaust and and rearend looks great in the pics Todd attached. But that's not what you'd use the Wurth brand undercoating for. Not sure what you have in mind to paint. Eastwood does have it all though, and usually at a decent price.

When the undercarrage rubber cracks, does it allow water to collect, sit and rust worse?
