Turn your wheel wells black cheap! Quick fix. #trucks

What happens here

Shake the can of Rust-Oleum Rubberized Undercoating thoroughly for at least one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. While wearing a respirator mask, safety glasses, and gloves, hold the can 10-16 inches (25-40 cm) from the surface. Apply the undercoating in a steady, sweeping motion, overlapping each pass slightly. It is critical to apply multiple light, even coats rather than one heavy coat to prevent drips, runs, and ensure better adhesion and a uniform finish. Allow 15-20 minutes of flash-off time between each coat for the solvents to evaporate. Continue until the desired coverage and thickness are achieved.

Goal: Apply an even and protective layer of undercoating to the wheel well
