Stop Corrosion. Get the Best Vehicle Undercoating in Lapeer County
Salt Life Undercoating specializes in superior Rust Prevention using proven NH Oil Undercoating (NHOU) products. Protect your truck, car, trailer, or fleet from the corrosive effects of Imlay City’s winter roads.
Why Choose NHOU
The NHOU Advantage: Unmatched Protection & Innovative Features
Why choose Salt Life Undercoating and NHOU? Because not all oil undercoatings are created equal. We offer a superior, long-lasting defense against rust and corrosion, keeping your vehicle in top condition.
Key Benefits & Durability
- Active & Flexible Defense
Unlike hard, asphalt-based coatings that crack and trap moisture, NHOU oil remains active, constantly self-sealing against moisture and road salt. This flexibility means continuous, year-round protection.
- Maximum Penetration
Our non-drip oil penetrates every seam, weld, and crevice—including the critical interior frame and body panels—to stop rust where it starts.
- Recommended Yearly Protection
To ensure maximum durability and defense against Michigan’s harsh winters, we recommend a simple, yearly re-application. We have a high rate of returning customers who trust this proven regimen.
Exclusive NHOU Features
The "Mouse Out" Deterrent
Only NHOU Clear Oil contains natural peppermint oil, which acts as a harmless, built-in deterrent for rodents. This exclusive feature helps protect engine components and wiring from unwanted nests and critter damage.
Comprehensive Coverage
Our standard application is meticulous. We spray inside all critical cavities and body panels, including doors, rocker panels, crossmembers, behind taillights, and under the hood, ensuring your entire vehicle is safe.
Restoration Options
For older or rust-affected vehicles, we offer the NHOU Black-N-Black Restoration (a pigmented oil) and an optional “Rusteration” service that includes pressure washing, descaling, and a chemical rust stopper prior to oiling.
