A realistic winter undervehicle test has been described from the initial concept of testing small drawn pans, production formed from coated steel products such as hot dip galvanize, to a specially designed pan. Typical metallic coatings as well as organic coatings exposed to varying winter periods of time were rated for corrosion resistance according to two different methods of evaluation. No perforation of the steel substrate due to corrosion has been observed even after test pans have been exposed for seven winters.
