Anh Tuan, a resident of My Dinh, frequently drives his truck between Hanoi and its surrounding districts. Despite only owning it for three years, his truck’s undercarriage showed signs of rust, especially after driving through rain and muddy roads. It turned out he had never undercoated his “rice bowl” (his livelihood). Upon hearing this, his friend, a truck dealer in Cau Giay, exclaimed, “Not undercoating is a huge mistake! You’re risking your whole truck to save a few pennies!”
Indeed, many drivers still don’t fully understand the importance of undercoating. So, what are the benefits? This article will answer that question.
Undercoating is the process of applying a specialized coating to the undercarriage of a vehicle. This coating offers superior rust and corrosion protection compared to regular paint.
Undercoating might sound like a luxury, but it offers numerous practical advantages:
Rust Protection:
The undercarriage is constantly exposed to rocks, rainwater, dirt, chemicals, and other elements that can cause oxidation and rust. Undercoating acts as “armor,” shielding the undercarriage from these harmful elements.
Increased Vehicle Lifespan:
A well-protected undercarriage translates to a more durable and reliable vehicle with fewer breakdowns.
Cost Savings on Repairs:
Prevention is better than cure. Undercoating can significantly reduce long-term repair and maintenance costs associated with undercarriage damage.
Enhanced Aesthetics:
A fresh undercoating keeps your vehicle looking clean and pristine, enhancing its overall appearance.

The cost of undercoating depends on several factors, including the vehicle type, coating type, and service provider. Below is a sample price list:
Vehicle Type | Undercoating Price (VNĐ) |
---|---|
Sedan | 3,000,000 – 5,000,000 |
SUV | 4,000,000 – 6,000,000 |
Pickup Truck | 5,000,000 – 7,000,000 |
The answer is YES. Undercoating is essential for comprehensive vehicle protection.
You should undercoat your car as soon as you purchase a new vehicle or when you notice signs of scratches or rust.
Many undercoating products are available on the market. Choose a reputable brand that fits your budget and needs.
