Is anyone considering taking their truck to Ziebart or another similar company for paint protection or undercoating? Or is there another company that is proven better over another?

I'm looking at keeping this truck for a while, so I want to make sure everything is taken care of.

Thanks

I had no idea that Ziebart was still in business. I recall reading some negative ratings. It was years and years ago, but I remember that in some instances the undercoating may trap moisture in some nooks and crannies and actually foster rust.

It's not worth it. I don't know if it's the product, or the person applying it but I have had the wheel wells down twice now. IT still keeps coming off. Takes forever to cure.

Go with lineX or rhino liner.

One good thing that Ziebart (and others) do is spray inside the doors/rocker panels. But, I'm not sure if rust/corrosion will be an issue in the Gen2 trucks, like it has been on Gen1 Raptors. I would look into Line-Xing the frame. Where I work, all of our new trucks have hot dipped galvanized frames and aluminum bodies.
