I am posting to see how many people would seriously be interested in a full rust proofing group discount.
Key words here are serious and full rust proofing.
By full rust proof I mean the whole car including frame, inside panels etc., not just the undercoating.
Once I see how many people are interested I will try to find the best deal possible.

I'm interested! http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif Last year I had Cobra 1 do it...they use good oil and completely drench everything! My car dripped for 4 days! (some people say they're good cuz of this, and some people say they arent)
Anyway, you might wanna give them a ring > 905-273-3061 and ask for "Sven"...I believe hes the owner. Last October I got it done for $90 (w/drilling holes).

I am very interested, it has to be arranged before Oct 5th as I already have it booked up here on that day. Find out about warranties and such I also have a 1996 GMC truck to get done as well. If it can be arranged around that time I will cancel with my current spot.

Instead of crappy, messy oil on your car that constantly creeps, looks ugly and you have to do it every year, why not get permanent undercoating. I know Honduh offers it cause my g/f's new civic just got done. Its like $450 or something but you never have to do it again

I really liked the job that Krown did on my car not too long ago (last month). The guy was so thorough and went through a lot of detail into the whole process, that I didn't mind paying the $110. As for dripping or not, I'm not an expert at rust proofing. But it made sense to me that the liquid should be able to get into places that rain could get into, hence the more watery substance rather than something thicker. My car dripped for about 3 days. You just can't put it on interlocking stones, but paved driveways are ok (supposedly). Spots will eventually fade.

I'd be interested in a Krown application if you can get the price below $100. For those of you not familiar with Krown, the price you pay for the initial application is the "locked-in" price you pay for the yearly re-application as long as you own the car. The only negative about Krown - your engine bay will never be clean again. They spray it everywhere and it doesn't take long 'till it's covered in dust. No corrosion though...

I'm with KeeWee on this one...
Got mine done in April at Krown (Lawrence/Markham) and it was 110 or thereabouts... and as bluezoom puts it, it's a locked in price, so long as you get it reapplied every year during the same month or something like that. And the dripping thing, really makes sense to me... mine dripped for a few dys, 3 or 4 or something, and made a bit of a mess on the floor of the parking garage but i dont' even notice the mess now... or even if there is one, and it's a plain concrete floor, (ie. light grey, not black) so the mess would appear less if it's on a standard drive.
This prettymuch excludes me from wanting to join in on the group deal, since mines done already, but I felt I just wanted to drop in my opinion and thoughts. (Plus, my dad has used Krown for years and his cars have no rust at all.)

Be aware that Krown gives $10 CAA member discount.... so a group buy price of $100 should be a no-brainer. My P5 was already done at Krown a month ago... he sprayed so much stuff, the dripping out of the hatch and other places just stopped recently (but lots of this stuff migrating around inside your body panels is a good thing).
