One of the biggest dangers to your vehicle starts where you can't see it - under the car.
Rust develops precisely where moisture, salt, dirt, and grit accumulate. In Germany and throughout Europe, modern de-icing agents such as salt brine are particularly aggressive to metal parts on the underbody.

Why corrosion protection is becoming increasingly important in Germany

Municipal road maintenance departments are increasingly turning to brine solutions instead of road salt. These liquid agents work faster and more efficiently – but they are also significantly more aggressive for your vehicle .

The brine penetrates into every crack, no matter how small, sticks there and unnoticed promotes rust formation.
That's why kneft.eu offers high-quality oil-based underbody protection from NHOU – developed for year-round protection in all climate zones in Europe.
Also available at carlat.com as a complementary sales partner for the EU area.

Factory underbody protection vs. oil underbody protection

▶️ Factory-applied corrosion protection

Many vehicles are factory-applied with a rubber-like coating. This typically lasts 3–5 years , but can be damaged by stone chips or temperature fluctuations.
The problem: As soon as salt and moisture get behind this layer, corrosion begins unnoticed – often first in the wheel arches or behind the sill panels.

▶️ NHOU Oil-based Underbody Protection

The NHOU underbody protection is applied to a clean and dry subfloor . If necessary, small holes are drilled to allow the oil to penetrate all cavities, joints, and overlaps .

Advantages of NHOU Oil Undercoating®:

• Remains permanently active , does not dry out

• Creeps into the smallest cracks and displaces moisture

• Stops existing rust formation without affecting the electronics

• Contains no solvents , is environmentally friendly

• Ideal for all seasons

• Self-healing – protects even after mechanical stress

Rust is more than just a cosmetic defect

Over time, corrosion can weaken the vehicle's structure , damage safety components such as suspension, brake lines or steering systems - and thus significantly reduce the resale value .

The situation in Germany & Europe

Auto repair shops across Germany are increasingly reporting severe rust infestation , even on newer vehicles or reimports from Scandinavia or the Baltic States. Vehicles without regular maintenance or those parked outdoors for long periods are particularly affected.

According to experience, the average cost of repairing rust damage in Germany is €300–800 per vehicle – significantly more than the investment in preventative protection.
