Too Late For Rust Check?

[hockeybronx]

Simple question... is when the car is new the only time you can get an under-body rust check (spraying the underside of your car) done, or can you take a 6 year old vehicle in and the rust check still work?

Thanks guys.

It is best to get it done before any rust starts but the rust inhibitor will still work on an older vehicle with minor or surface rust. If there is a lot of rust (holes or flaking) you should get it repaired first and then coated. A six year old Alberta vehicle should be okay. My car is 8 years old and it is still fine and has never been coated.
