I've used everything from tire foam, tire shine thats similar to tire foam but doesn't foam  to this product from Griots Garage called "under carriage spray". I use this on my customers rides for that "finishing touch", although I gotta tell them about it or they'd never notice. One thing I'll say about using the aerosols is this, use them in the garage where theres no wind. If some of it does get up on the car, use some quick detailer....QUICK

Simple green 50/50 with water, then I use Mop and Glo. The mop and glo works great during the winter time because all the mud and snow will wash right off. You want to apply a coat of armor all or other other dressing to keep the wheel wells black.

Wanna know the true secret. Get some rubber undercoating spray. Remove all the liners and spray them. They help quiet noise and they will remain brand new looking with just a hose off. Will add a little weight to the car but it's what I did.

I used 3M rubber undercoating spray and the looks almost didn't get any better.
