Applying undercoating

I want to apply undercoating to my rear wheel wells as well as my axles and my differential covers. Anythign that is prone to rust, I want to cover. Is there any specific way to apply these? I believe a local automotive store sells these in a spray can. Do they come in different colors??I would prefer black, but clear will work as well

Be careful when you apply it to the rear wheel wells. There is a oily / waxy film on the wheel wells that makes it hard to apply the undercoating. Not only do you need to remove the oily film but also scuff up the paint overspray to make sure that the undercoating sticks to the surface.
