Is it paint or an under coating? thank you GARY F at the end of the pipe there is a nozzle that sends the product in all directions.it is a greasy product of white color, it is enough to put the pipe at the bottom of the cross-beam then to press on the gun to project the product and at the same time in pull the pipe gently towards the outside to be able to put a good load all over .
