What do you use for undercoat
Can you guys tell me what you recommend for undercoating for salt belt places?
I’ve been reading about mixing grease and candle wax together I’m thinking on trying that Out this year.
thoughts ?

Ever notice how metal doesn't rust underneath oil leaks? An oil based undercoating will be your best bet. Most rubber or tar based under coatings that advertise creating a "protective barrier against rust and moisture" may actually end up trapping the moisture and salt behind the coating, which can cause your frame to rust from the inside out. You really want a coating that can breathe.
