I didn't spray mine. IIRC only 2 people have done theirs. GermanKK just had his sprayed a couple weeks ago and I want to say silverfox might have had hers sprayed, but I can't remember

Your going to need way more then 2 cans of that stuff.I sprayed my KJ with QuakerState undercoating(industrial stuff,special gun required and comes in 25 gallon drums) when I worked at the dealership.Required on a new vehicles sold in SD,took about 1.5 gallons to spray my undercarriage.Do not spray the driveshafts,CV shafts,engine,trans,t-case,F/R diffs,and of course the exhaust.

I used Dynatron "Dyna-Pro No.544" paintable rubberized undercoating on the frame and bottom of the tear drop trailer I am making. It sprays on with compressed air and an applicator. It resists rocks and creates a sound barrier as well as an electrochemical barrier against rust.
It is very sticky when applied and dries to a malleable rubber. You really have to watch out for over spray. It will clean up with acetone. But acetone is not a good thing to use on Paint, Clear-coat, or the wax on your rig. They also offer rattle cans, But if you are planning to do a large area, the 1 gallon can and applicator will save $. I haven't done my rig yet, but it is planned.
