Black coat under car

ft1338 · 04-21-2013, 11:49 AM

I know nothing about car maintenance and I've been messing under my car to install a trailer hitch. Worked great but I found this thick black sticky coat sprayed under part of the chassis. It's not everywhere, just some choice areas. I'm just curious what it is. I had to cut a piece of metal to fit the trailer hitch and that exposed some bare metal and I was thinking of just re-coating this to prevent rusting. What is that black substance?

I makes the car float on water incase you ever end up driving into a lake of some sort.

You don't know what the, "black sticky coat" under your car is, and your the one calling me the "noob?" Why do I find that quite comical

What a bunch of douches. It's called rubberized undercoating, asked in a less shitty place. Thanks for nothing especially the moosefucker.

Do you also need some help identifying the "white sticky coat" that covers your knob when your finished looking at gay porn?
