Yaris rust proof?
Is it? if not what kind of rust preventative products out there?
Por-15. Rustoleum enamel. Truck bed liner. Chip guard. What else? |

I just recently did mine using Herculiner paint on bed liner (which is also rated to be an undercoating).
Here's a thread with some pics of the results: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=38073

I pressure washed it using Simple Green (which is a mild cleanser/degreaser) and vacuumed the handfuls of pebbles out of the bottom of the wheel wells.

I've always had good success undercoating cars with an oil spray (Krown in my area).
