has anyone used the 3M undercoating on their truck? i want to take my new ram on the beach, but want to protect it.
i was quoted at 600 to do the frame, differentials, floors and inner wheel wells....seems high, but nobody else around here even offers the service.
thanks,

I never used their undercoating, but one option to consider is a truck bed liner. It can even be tinted to match the trucks color. It's easy to clean too.

Yep, stay away from the beach. Saltwater will get everywhere and pressure washiing won't get it all out.
Save yourself thousands that way, enough to buy a beater truck for beach running.
Seriously.

oil coating won't work with the sand kicking up.
i have accepted the fact that a) salt will rust my truck, but also b) that my truck will be worthless any ways when it actually becomes an issue (say 7-10 years) as by then cars will run on unicorn farts and get 100mpg and anything with a v8 will be worthless.
i will post some pics when i get the undercoat on. first going to wash with this salt terminator product for prep and then spay the 3m shutz all over!
