Looks good and love the concept but I am finding no short or long-term reviews on this Valugard from owners to see how this lasts and if it does what it is claiming.

[@ChronicLigma69]

The term “military grade” will scare anyone who’s been in the military

[@CapeFearCustoms]

For sure, but it truly is a great product that will last a lifetime!

[@texasfan8892]

Late response I know but it’s actually classified as Mil-Spec which I hear is the officially term used by the military.

[@Kuebs800]

“milspec” just means the cheapest the military can go that will function, speaking from experience.

[@Tameemabugharsa]

​@@Kuebs800more precisely: the cheapest product with failure rate within acceptable range in mass usage

[@MYFB05]

Thanks for this very informative video. Roughly how much would it cost on a Toyota Corolla hatchback wagon?

[@okniceguy]

Does Line-X turn into a solid coating used kind of like bedliners on a pickup truck? Or, is it oil-based protector like Woolwax/Fluid Film/Krown? If it turns to a solid coating like bedliners on a pickup truck, and potentially lasts a lifetime, should/can we go ahead and add Woolwax/Fluid Film/Krown oil based treatment for extra protection?

[@kirkolmsted]

Did you intentionally miss the entire front of the differential center section?

[@tonyrobertson9452]

Very interested in a Price on my Dodge Ram 4×4 01 its not in Bad shape yet just a little Surface Rust underneath.

[@Daviblanco19]

Lo malo fue que no le quitaron primero el oxido para colocar el line-x sino que lo echaron encima del óxido.

[@Brandon68plus1]

I keep seeing videos of vehicles rusting apart underneath hard undercoatings but why doesn't Line X bed liners cause the same problems?

[@mcmilliftw1166]

The under carriage is subject to way more weathering and exposure to moisture and salt than your truck bed. Also when you don’t sand down rust spots and treat it before coating it’ll just rot from the inside out

[@gabrielmiqueloto3189]

is true that kind of undercoating is for 10 years ?

[@Jim-K-Baker]

Is this the same material as Linex Truck Bed Liner?

[@CapeFearCustoms]

No it is not.

[@ryanr219]

What does something like this cost for that particular truck?

[@CapeFearCustoms]

Undercoating starts at $525!

[@akclan33]

Is it the customers job to blast the undercarriage free of dirt and rust before applying that stuff or does the place of business do that?

[@CapeFearCustoms]

Well take care of that, just don't go to a mud pit first lol.

[@jimmylim5015]

What kind of material is Valugard 160? Is it Rubberized?

[@CapeFearCustoms]

Here you go, this will give you some specs about it. valugard.net/products/environmental-protection-products/vg-160-military-spec-solvent-undercoating.html

[@terisulistio533]

Is Line-X brand coating generally sold?

[@CapeFearCustoms]

We only spray Line-X bedliners here.

[@terisulistio533]

@@CapeFearCustoms oooo ok thanks

[@ToyotaandDodgeGarage]

Very nice

[@CapeFearCustoms]

Thank you!

[@miketyson2258]

I just lucas gun oil in my shit...been good for years

[@CapeFearCustoms]

If it's not broken, don't fix it right? Undercoating really makes a difference if you're planning to go out on trails, beach, or even be in the snow. That extra layer of protection can make all the difference!

[@gtric1466]

What about under the spare tire?

[@CapeFearCustoms]

That gets coated as well, we remove the spare prior to prep.

[@erikvasicek9117]

looks like Stevie Wonder sprayed that shit!! it's all over the exhaust and there was no prep of the scale on the frame. you just sprayed over it?

[@Mr.International82]

😂

[@SergeRustic]

That is the dumbest thing ever. Nothing is going to adhere well to rust for starters, and if its already rusty what is the point other than to sell it which would fool someone into thinking it looks solid which it ain't

[@CapeFearCustoms]

You are correct! That is why we do not undercoat over rust damage, that's a great point. Always fix damage, never cover it up. It will always come back. For surface rust we use a rust converter. Undercoating is to prevent not to fix.
