Please don't use the rubberized undercoating. As soon as it fails (which it will) it will provide more hiding spaces for salt and sand wherever it cracks and peels. Oil undercoating is the best, especially if done every fall. Even better is to heat the oil and melt a tube of grease into it. Think of how the military stores weapons for long term. I have seen 50 YO rifles unpacked and degreased with nary a spot of rust on them and ready to fire.

Interesting, I would have thought rubber was the way to go. Is this the two part rust converter you use?

Would I need the gallon kit to do my 300TD? As of now I have very minimal rust, there is only one dime sized spot on the body. After I coat it with the rust converter I'll buy an undercoating gun and spray it with oil.
You really know your rust treatment, thanks for the help, my wagon will be thanking you for years to come!
