Hi Folks,
After a bit of a break from the porker I'm back with fresh enthusiasm to get cracking again! [

I've been trying to identify and obtain a suitable product to match the original beige chassis paint / underseal / stone chip which is applied to the underside of the floor (see photos below).
I've repair some surface corrosion whilst I've had the entire rear end stripped of parts and now I want to get the finish as close to original as possible.
I've been able to obtain the following rattle cans from 3M which are supposed to be a similar product as far as I can tell from my research. The schutz is the only one with the bumpy appearance but I could only find it in black (not beige) and it isn't over paintable. The top two sprays are over paintable.
8159 3M Body Gard Grey Flat
8158 3M Body Gard Black Flat
8877 3M Spray Schutz Coating Black
My research tells me that the original product was 3M Body Shutz / Shultz or Body Gard in Beige, but I don't seem to be able to find a supplier for this or any for sale.
3M™ Body Gard Textured Coating | 3M United Kingdom
3M™ Rocker Schutz™ Coating | 3M United States
I don't have a compressor so if the only option is a industrial version requiring a schutz gun then will possibly have to assemble the rear suspension so the car can be moved to a bodyshop to have it applied. Unless anyone knows of a simple setup I could put together to spray with a schutz gun?
Looking for suggestions!
Thanks
David
