Undercoat issues

Hello, after reading success stories I bought and sprayed 3m aerosol undercoating on my under cab. I had degreaser wire wheeled and sprayed with etch primer. I sprayed the undercoat 3 days ago and it is still soft and scrapes off with your fingernail. Is there a remedy can I paint something over it to make it hard?? I sprayed krylon on it and it still scraped off. Thanks

i used the truck bedliner stuff on mine, super tough!!! maybe the etch primer cause your issue. id say use a test panel without etch and see if it sticks and not come off...

Re: Undercoat issues

I used truck bed liner also and its held up great.

Did you give the primer enough time to fully cure? Only thing I can think is it didn't dry enough causing the soft undercoating.

Re: Undercoat issues

Whatever brand undercoat you buy, get rubberized if you don't want it to stay greasy.. the only difference then with brands will be spray texture and coverage per can.
