They drill extra holes to apply new hydraulic oil with a wand and put rubber plugs in when they're done. It costs about $50 and should be done annually during a dry spell in late summer or early fall.

The type of undercoating you are talking about sounds exactly like the one I used to do for people when I worked at the shop (about 10 years ago). The mess is my least favorite part...which is why I was hoping to hear good things about less messy types...oh well!
