    Thumbs down Opinion: SWB Under Coat

    Almost ready to undercoat a stripped pan on an early car. Wurth has a product that is waterbased, however they don't ship during the winter. I think they also
    have a similar product that is solvent based. Has anyone used this on an early car? Is it easy to apply, look correct, color OK etc?
    Thanks

    You want the water based black stuff. Who told you they don't ship in winter? Search here for "schutz"

    The water-based product is the Stoneguard. If you have trouble getting it, let me know. We order it regularly from Wurth and probably have a couple of bottles around at any given time.

    please excuse my naivety, but why would one use a waterbased one? wouldnt the water part promote rust?

    No, the water evaporates out, for example almost all cars are now factory painted with water based paint. Solvent based paints emit unwanted fumes into the atmosphere. And frankly its a lot easier to clean my undercoat gun with water after usage instead of having to use lacquer thinner.

    The SKS will look like cottage cheese after it freezes. The early 67S Im restoring has a grey PVC layer that looks original. I dont think the grey SKS is available anymore
