Protect Your Vehicle Before The Salt Does Damage.
Western New York winters expose vehicles to road salt, moisture, slush, and grime. Over time, those conditions can contribute to corrosion on frames, suspension components, body seams, and other exposed metal areas.
Helps Fight Corrosion
Oil-based undercoating creates a protective barrier over corrosion-prone areas to help reduce direct exposure to moisture and road salt.
Ideal For WNY Winters
Buffalo-area vehicles regularly encounter salt, snow, slush, and wet winter roads. Undercoating adds another layer of protection underneath your vehicle.
Great For Trucks & Daily Drivers
Whether you have a newer daily driver, work truck, SUV, or older vehicle, underbody protection can help preserve areas constantly exposed to the road.
What We Protect.
Coverage depends on vehicle design and accessibility. Our goal is to coat appropriate corrosion-prone underbody areas while avoiding components that should not be sprayed.

How Undercoating Works.
Every vehicle is different, but our process is designed to prepare accessible areas and apply the coating where it can provide useful protection.
Vehicle Inspection
We inspect the underside for existing rust, dirt, mud, buildup, and areas that may require additional preparation.
Preparation
Loose debris and problem areas are addressed as needed before application. Additional preparation may require an adjusted quote.
Application
Oil-based undercoating is applied to appropriate accessible frame and underbody areas while avoiding components that should remain clean.
Final Check
We inspect the application and coverage before the vehicle is returned to you.

Common Questions.
What type of undercoating does VPC AutoSpa use?
We offer oil-based undercoating designed to help protect appropriate underbody and frame areas from moisture, road salt, and corrosion.
How much does undercoating cost?
Pricing currently starts at $149 for cars and sedans, $169 for crossovers and small SUVs, $189 for full-size SUVs, $199 for half-ton trucks, $229 for three-quarter-ton and one-ton trucks, and $249 or more for large vans and commercial vehicles.
Can you undercoat a vehicle that already has rust?
Existing rust does not automatically prevent a vehicle from being undercoated. We first inspect the condition. Loose scale, heavy corrosion, mud, or significant buildup may require additional preparation before application.
Do you spray brakes or the exhaust?
No. Components that should not be coated, such as braking surfaces and hot exhaust components, are avoided during application.
Is undercoating only for trucks?
No. Oil-based undercoating can be used on many cars, crossovers, SUVs, pickup trucks, vans, and work vehicles.
When is the best time to undercoat my vehicle?
Many Western New York customers choose to undercoat before winter and road-salt season. Applications can also be scheduled at other times of year depending on vehicle condition and preparation requirements.
Does oil-based undercoating last forever?
No. Oil-based protection should be inspected periodically and may require reapplication or touch-ups over time, especially on vehicles exposed to frequent winter driving, road salt, washing, and harsh conditions.
